John Douglas once again takes us fascinatingly behind the scenes, focusing his expertise on predatory crimes, primarily against women. With a deep sense of compassion for the victims and an uncanny understanding of the perpetrators, Douglas looks at the obsessions that lead to rape, stalking, and sexual murder through such cases as Ronnie Shelton, the serial rapist who terrorized Cleveland; and New York's notorious "Preppie Murder". But Douglas also looks at obsession on the other side of the moral spectrum: his own career-long obsession with hunting these predators.

There is little more terrifying than those who hunt, stalk, and snatch their prey under the cloak of darkness. These hunters search not for animals, but for the touch, taste, and empowerment of human flesh. They are cannibals, vampires, and monsters, and they walk among us. These serial killers are not mythical beasts with horns and shaggy hair. They are people living among society, going about their day-to-day activities until nightfall. They are the Dennis Rader's, the fathers, husbands, church-going members of the community.

Publisher's Summary
This gripping book gives you an inside look into 13 of the most frightening serial killer stories of the 1980s. Learning about the lives of these 13 serial killers - along with the lives they took - is a roller-coaster of emotions. It’s scary, shocking, heartbreaking, and enraging all at the same time. This book will leave you feeling almost too scared to leave your house and stunned at how one human could do these things to another. You’ll feel sorrow for the lives lost - for their families and all those affected, yet angry at the same time - angry at this world we live in, angry that anyone could get away with the murder of one and then go on to kill more.
Many of these tales you almost see coming - the killer had a poor childhood and was simply dealt a rough hand in life, which leads to the question - what could have been done? Is there something that could have saved these people from becoming serial killers? Or is it ever possible to save someone from themselves?

John Douglas once again takes us fascinatingly behind the scenes, focusing his expertise on predatory crimes, primarily against women. With a deep sense of compassion for the victims and an uncanny understanding of the perpetrators, Douglas looks at the obsessions that lead to rape, stalking, and sexual murder through such cases as Ronnie Shelton, the serial rapist who terrorized Cleveland; and New York's notorious "Preppie Murder". But Douglas also looks at obsession on the other side of the moral spectrum: his own career-long obsession with hunting these predators.
