In the text the author challenges the conventional idea of serial killers as deranged madmen. He explores the twisted, but comprehensible, motives of some of the world's most notorious killers, including Edmund Emil Kemper, Theodore Robert Bundy, Albert DeSalvo (The Boston Strangler) and Davis Berkowitz (Son of Sam).
