More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
He was a soft-spoken grandfather, a family man and a retired English teacher. But beneath the model-citizen exterior of Andrei Chikatilo lurked the most heinous of criminals - the serial killer. Sexually mutilating and eating his victims, his 12-year rampage in southern Russia finally came to an end in 1990, when an uncannily accurate profile of him by a local psychologist led police to him. He has admitted killing 11 boys and 42 girls and young women. This book probes the mind of this killer.

Since buying this book, I have read it about 20 times, and each time I cannot believe how sadistic and evil this man was. The cruelty he showed to his victims was unbelievably sick.
The author gives you a brillant insight to his life, from his school days right up to when he was caught. This man is the perfect reason why you shouldn't talk to strangers...however friendly they appear to be!
A must read.

At times horrifying and disturbing to read, but impossible to put down. This book delves into every event that happened to Andrei Chikatilo that made him what he is. It details all of the murders (sometimes a little too much). By halfway through the book, you feel like you should be watching your back as how can bars or even death stop such a monster? At times you even pity Chikatilo, but it soon passes.
The best book about a criminal I have ever read. Highly recommended, I was left feeling completely satisfied unlike other books which leave you with questions.
Just one question - how is it that Ted Bundy is more infamous that this beast?
