Serial Killers: The Method and Madness of Monsters

Serial Killers: The Method and Madness of Monsters

A comprehensive examination into the frightening history of serial homicideâ€”including information on Americaâ€™s most prolific serial killers.

In this unique book, Peter Vronsky documents the psychological, investigative, and cultural aspects of serial murder, beginning with its first recorded instance in Ancient Rome through fifteenth-century France on to such notorious contemporary cases as cannibal/necrophile Ed Kemper, Henry Lee Lucas, Ted Bundy, and the emergence of what he classifies as the â€œserial rampage killerâ€ such as Andrew Cunanan.

Vronsky not only offers sound theories on what makes a serial killer but also makes concrete suggestions on how to survive an encounter with oneâ€”from recognizing verbal warning signs to physical confrontational resistance. Exhaustively researched with transcripts of interviews with killers, and featuring up-to-date information on the apprehension and conviction of the Green River killer and the Beltway Snipers, Vronskyâ€™s one-of-a-kind book covers every conceivable aspect of an endlessly riveting true-crime phenomenon.
