Book Synopsis



What dark thoughts roam the mind of a murderer?

In this gripping account, Al Cimino examines the lives and crimes of renowned serial killers as told in their own words - through the confessions they gave to police, their outbursts in court and the chilling manifestos they left behind.

From Ted Bundy and Jeffrey Dahmer to Aileen Wuornos and David Berkowitz, this book covers 10 infamous psychopaths who have committed some of the most horrible crimes known to humanity. Their evil deeds seem unthinkable to the rest of us. Yet each had their own twisted logic for their dastardly deeds.

Tinged with sadistic glee, an intense desire to justify their own actions, rage against society and the most intricate descriptions of their victims and the atrocious actions they took against them, their shocking confessions provide a window into the darkest side of human nature.

These confessions are accompanied by chilling black and white photographs throughout.

ABOUT THE SERIES: The True Crime Casefiles series covers some of the most shocking crimes and notorious criminals and psychopaths of all time, without shying away from the grisly details. These books include psychological profiles, witness testimonies, court proceedings and more, accompanied by chilling photographs of the people and places involved.
