Stalking is on the increase. And it isn't only celebrities who become the targets of irrational and desperate individuals. Men and women with everyday jobs who lead ordinary lives can just as easily become someone else's obsession. Since John Lennon's murder in 1980 the world has recognised the danger that lies behind this insidious and threatening behaviour, but has been slow to act against it. In this thoroughly researched, serious investigation into a disturbing phenomenon, Richard Gallagher interviews victims, police, psychologists -- and those who 'stalk the stalkers' -- to provide remarkable accounts of obsession, delusion and terror.-- A comprehensive investigation into stalking -- the crime of the modern age-- Extensively researched book on a growing crime phenomenon-- Will appeal to fans of true crime and those looking for a serious report on the issue
