"Ed Kemper decided to spare his mother the guilt and shame of having a serial killer for a son, so one morning he crept into her bedroom and slit her throat. John Wayne Gacy invited teenage boys home to try on his 'magic handcuffs'. When he tired of them, he murdered them and buried them in the crawlspace beneath the house. Patrick Mackay tortured his pet rabbit, tried to strangle his neighbor's cat, and grilled his tortoise alive on a bonfire. Then he moved on to human beings. Few people kill. Fewer still kill again. The FBI estimates that there are between 25 and 50 serial killers at large in teh USA at any given time. But serial killing is a worldwide phenomenon, and no two killers are alike. This book presents more than two dozen of the most gruesome cases, each one a compelling tale that takes the reader to the darkest reaches of the human psyche."--Publisher's description. (less)
