nurse avatar reviewed on + 221 more book reviews


This book not quite as good as whoever fights monsters but still has insight into tracking down and getting inside the mind of a serial killer. Contains interviews with Gacy and Dahmer. Also discusses cases he was called in to advise in Japan,and other countries. There also was a case here in the U.S. regarding a citizen who shot a japanese exchange student. The student was thought to be an intruder when in reality was attempting to go to a party and reached the wrong house. That was not only a misuse of firearms but a miscarriage of justice. Jack the Ripper it also discussed.
