Into the mind of the killer
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
What makes Chikatilo fascinating is that it took so long for him to be caught, and the reasons for this delay. He was incredibly lucky, in some ways, but the structure of laws, customs and means of communication in the Russia of the time are the real reasons for his long career as a killer. Conradi explains all of this clearly. What is not so clear are the details of how all of the info he presents was acquired. Did the author have access to confession documents, or interrogation documents? If so, the readers would sure like to see them included in the book. Overall, a very readable, informative book.
Tough read but worth it !

Bizzare on both ends, the killer as well as the cops. If you like serial killer books this is unbelieveable!
