After Dark True Cases of Serial Killers

De: James Glass

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

What makes a man—or a moment—turn lethal? Why do some societies spot predators early while others do not? After Dark examines thirty cases of serial killing from medieval Europe to the DNA era, bringing forensic clarity, courtroom drama, and measured moral reflection to stories too often told as spectacle.
Each chapter reconstructs a life of crime and the investigation that ended it—Burke and Hare’s trade in corpses; Ted Bundy’s theatrical court appearances and late confessions; the forensic breakthroughs that finally unmasked long‑evading predators—while always asking the harder questions about system failure, stigma, and reform. Short fictional interludes, clearly signposted, illuminate motive without pretending to be history.
Carefully sourced, global in scope, and written with restraint and compassion for victims and families, After Dark is a book for readers who want true crime that teaches about how crimes are solved, how they might have been prevented, and what we learn when we face the darkest parts of human behavior.
