What drives a man to kill another person, & another, then another until he can no longer stop?
Pulitzer Prize nominee Dr Christopher J Kurtz & co-author Robert D Hunter may have the answer to this question.
Through their correspondence with numerous convicted killers, who have told of their compulsion to commit serial homicide, the authors have gained a unique insight into the lives of these individuals & explore in disturbing detail the homicidal manifestations of a number of mental afflictions.
Their conclusions make for frightening reading, but Kurtz & Hunter argue that we must delve deeply into the world of evil & the irrational if we are ever to understand the serial killer & his motives.
Dark Truths not only provides an in-depth study of the terrifying obsessions of serial killers & rapists, but it is also a compelling study of alienation & psychosis that lurk just beneath the surface of modern society.
