Talking with Psychopaths
Talking with Psychopaths: A Journey Into the Evil Mind | Christopher Berry-Dee
3 posts | 7 read | 3 to read
Criminologist Christopher Berry-Dee takes readers deep inside the dark minds of some of the most pitiless and dangerous people alive. Having spent years interviewing imprisoned criminals, including notorious serial killers, he discovered that the lack of remorse they showed was in many ways more terrifying than the crimes they had committed. Yet in the course of these conversations, the author also had the chance to interview his subjects' psychiatrists and, in doing so, uncovered a terrible truth: a monster can be hidden behind a friendly face. Some of these experts, he found, proved to have more in common with their patients than he would ever have expected. This book examines horrific crimes committed by some of the most remorseless and merciless people ever to have lived. If it reveals a mindset wholly alien to most people, it also, shockingly, demonstrates that some of the people who treat these psychopaths have their own demons. Talking with Psychopaths will inevitably shift the reader's view of psychopaths, and in doing so, reveals that horror can be much closer to us than we think.

This is pretty heavy....took a while to finish as I read a couple of books along side it but if your interested in true crime it‘s worth a read. I would definitely look at more from Berry-Dee as he has some incredible stories to tell.

If you liked Mindhunter, this may be for you!

I have previously read Christopher's book Talking with Serial Killers and I enjoyed it so I was looking forward to reading this one. I love true crime books usually but this one was just ok. If I had to recommend his books though I would say to read Talking with Serial Killers over this one. This one just wasn't as interesting or compelling of a read in my opinion it was sadly a little disappointing. #goodreads #litsy #bookstagram #bookqueen
