The historical context given as explanation for the rise in serial killers in the 60s – 80s is enough reason to read this book! on top of that, the author gives in depth insight to many many cases of serial murder. I think he is right on the money with his theories and his warnings..

I enjoyed this forbidden love story, but the male narrator was not good. His voice was whiney. Not even a little sexy.
