Więcej o książce
In Dark Dreams, FBI profiler Roy Hazelwood, alongside bestselling author Stephen G. Michaud, delves into the minds of the world's most dangerous sexual criminals, revealing their pervasive presence in society. As a leading expert on aberrant offenders, Hazelwood uncovers the twisted motives and thought processes behind the most reprehensible crimes. He shares innovative investigative techniques he pioneered at the FBI's Behavioral Science Unit, which enable law enforcement to construct psychological profiles of these offenders. Hazelwood recounts chilling cases that illustrate the depths of human depravity: a young woman's remains discovered near a torture device after her disappearance; a teenager found hanging in a storm sewer with a stopwatch in his mouth, raising questions about ritualistic murder or a dark fantasy; and a married couple who, with their toddler in tow, kidnap a hitchhiker and keep her as a sexual slave for seven years, driven by a horrific bargain. Despite the gruesome nature of these crimes, Hazelwood demonstrates that determination and logic can lead to justice for even the most cunning criminals. Dark Dreams is a gripping exploration of the criminal mind and the relentless pursuit of justice, earning a 2002 Edgar Award nomination for Best Fact Crime.
