Through extensive research and interviews with five notorious serial killers, author Joel Norris demonstrates that serial killers have specific biological and genetic makeups that can be identified as early as five years of age. A compelling read for both the curious layman and the concerned professional.

Very interesting book. The parts about every individual criminal and their crimes really caught my attention and wish they had put more of that. However towards the end of the book it just felt repetitive. They keep on bringing up the childhood trauma and the parental issues, even implying that these individuals were born this way and "just couldn't help themselves". I understand talking about the root of the problem is important, but after spending the whole second half of the book reading the same conclusion it gets tiring.
