The Killer Across the Table by John E Douglas

 

The Killer Across the Table: Unlocking the Secrets of Serial Killers and Predators with the FBI's Original Mindhunter by John E. Douglas
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What is it about true crime? I am addicted.

Ever since watching Mindhunter on Netflix, I can't get enough of John Douglas' books. In this book, he takes a very in depth look at four criminals and their crimes. He analyzes every aspect including predicting future crimes. He makes reference to other crimes and criminals, he minces no words, and he takes no prisoners (metaphorically). I'm not sure I'd want him as a friend since he's very opinionated and sure of his conclusions, but it makes for really good reading.

I tend to prefer to read text copies of nonfiction books since they often include photographs and references - which I am nerdy enough to devour. However, this audio book was read by Jonathan Groff...enough said.
