Description
A CHILLING NEW BOOK FROM THE MILLION COPY BESTSELLING AUTHOR AND CRIMINOLOGIST, CHRISTOPHER BERRY DEE
Celebrating the culmination of Christopher Berry Dee's life's work, Inside Psychopath's Minds - In Their Own Words gives the reader a forensic insight into the minds of some of the most dangerous murderers of modern times, so that we can truly ask ourselves, how does the deviant mind work?
To gain access to such distilled evil, the author has, for decades, been interviewing these killers face-to-face, interrogating and corresponding with people society often labels as 'monsters', to unlock their thinking processes, gain access to their secrets, sexual fantasies, temptations and urges. The result is an expert look into the minds of convicted serial killers, based on the author's unique and extensive archive of correspondence between him and these murderers. The material is original and most of it has never been published before.
Includes disturbing correspondence with:
Michael Peterson: the true story behind the HBO Max series The Staircase in Peterson's own words
David Mulcahy: one of the notorious railway rapists and murderers with John Duffy. Is he innocent or not?
The late LeRoy 'Viva' Nash: one of the original 'Angels with Dirty Faces', the longest serving inmate on 'The Green Mile' in US history.
Charles Lannis Moses: the self-professed 'The Real Outlaw Josey Wales'.
