Sadistic Killers

Acclaimed crime writer Carol Anne Davis explores the minds of sadistic killers: their childhoods, their growing pathology, and their horrific crimes. Davis delineates the different subgroups of sadists, including chapters on female sadists, consensual sadomasochism, and the rehabilitation of some of the world's most violent men. SADISTIC KILLERS is a compelling look at the formative influences acting upon sadists and at their crimes, unflinching in detail but never gratuitous.
