What is it like to write letters to a serial killer? What tactics does an investigator use to get an interview with a monster? What do these killers, locked behind bars, have to say? See for yourself? Talking with Psychopaths: Letters from Serial Killers is the unique study of criminals in their own words based on bestselling true crime author and criminologist Christopher Berry-Dee’s extensive interviews with convicted serial murderers. Step inside the mind of The Genesee River Killer, The Death Row Teddy, The Ice Queen, The Want-ad Killer, The Moors Murderer, The Amityville Horror, The I-95 Killer, and more. This rare collection has Berry-Dee at his steeliest best, exploring the downright creepy correspondence with murderers, serial killers, and psychopaths, with exclusive scans of letters and eerily decorated envelopes. A must-have for fans of the Talking with Serial Killers and Talking with Psychopaths series, a collection that will be bequeathed to the FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Unit at its headquarters in Quantico, Virginia.

About the Author

Born in 1948, Christopher Berry-Dee is descended from Dr. John Dee, Court Astrologer to Queen Elizabeth I, and is the founder and former Director of the Criminology Research Institute (CRI), and former publisher and Editor-in-Chief of The Criminologist, a highly respected journal on matters concerning all aspects of criminology from law enforcement to forensic psychology.  

Christopher has interviewed and interrogated over thirty of the world’s most notorious killers—serial, mass and one-off—including Peter Sutcliffe, Ted Bundy, Aileen Wuornos, Dennis Nilsen and Joanne Dennehy. He was co-producer/interviewer for the acclaimed twelve-part TV documentary series The Serial Killers, and has appeared on television as a consultant on serial homicide, and, in the series Born to Kill?, on the cases of Fred and Rose West, the Moors Murderers and Dr. Harold Shipman. He has also assisted in criminal investigations as far afield as Russia and the United States.  

Notable book successes include: Monster (basis for the movie of the same title, about Aileen Wuornos); and the internationally bestselling Talking with Serial Killers and Talking with Psychopaths series. --This text refers to an alternate kindle_edition edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars What a great read if you are interested in the minds of serial killers!

I really enjoyed this book. Christopher has a great sense of humor even though the subject is so serious. Instead of feeling down or mortified, I found myself laughing at the ridiculous things that his subjects said. Of course, they are innocent, or framed, or insane, but the things they wrote are almost always lies. It was a well written and very interesting!
