Description
________________________________________
AN UNSPEAKABLE CRIME
When he was arrested in July 1991, Jeffrey Dahmer had a severed head in the refrigerator, two more in the freezer, two skulls, and a skeleton in a filing cabinet.
A DEPRIVED ACT
But if anything could be more disturbing than the brute horror of this scene, it was the evidence that Dahmer had been using these human remains not only for sexual gratification, but as part of a dark ritual of his own devising — to furnish a shrine to himself.
A KILLER, BEYOND OUR UNDERSTANDING
________________________________________
The Shrine of Jeffrey Dahmer offers a chilling insight into the mind of a serial killer and reveals the horrors within.
Perfect for fans of Making a Murderer, Mindhunter, and The Ted Bundy Tapes, this is a gripping and gruesome read that delves into the mind of a murderer and what possesses someone to kill.
__________
By the author of Killing for Company, which was adapted into the hit ITV true crime drama DES, starring David Tennant.
