The Last Supper with a Psychopath
A Criminologist’s Chilling Diary of a Real Family Murder

On a cold November night in 1987, the quiet town of Ina, Illinois, was devastated by a crime so brutal it defied comprehension. The Dardeen family—Keith, Elaine, their 2-year-old son Peter, and a newborn baby girl—were found murdered in their modest trailer home in one of the most disturbing and mysterious homicides in American history.

Why was there no forced entry?
Why was nothing stolen?
And who could commit such unimaginable violence—murdering even a baby born during the attack?

In The Last Supper with a Psychopath, a Criminologist Author peels back the layers of this unsolved case with chilling clarity. Drawing on crime scene reports, forensic evidence, and psychological profiling, the book revisits a case that remains unsolved—and unforgettable.

Notorious serial killer Tommy Lynn Sells later confessed to the crime, but his confession was riddled with inconsistencies and never proven in court. Was he the killer? Or is the real psychopath still unknown?

This is more than a true crime story. It is a haunting psychological investigation into the minds of predators who walk among us, often undetected. Some studies say that 1 in 100 people exhibit psychopathic traits—some harmless, others deadly.
Could the Dardeens have seen the signs? Could anyone?

Through this gripping narrative, you’ll learn:

• The subtle red flags that often precede violent acts

• The psychological makeup of a true psychopath

• Why even the most cautious families can become victims.
  
  This book is a thought-provoking journey into the abyss of human evil—and a wake-up call for anyone who believes that monsters only live in the dark.
  Evils are constantly searching for their victims. Catch the red flags early rather than late.
