Wow.
So, the blurb for the book is better than the book.
The “in depth” history and background on the most evil killers? It’s not in depth. 4 serial killers in 4 pages. And those 4 pages were the most interesting and least repetitive in the book.
Save yourself the effort, read the blurb, and maybe go find a book about specific serial killers that actually breaks down their history and some of the impetus behind their crimes.
This book is not it.
