A chilling exploration into the psyche of real-life killers like Oscar Pistorius, Harold Shipman, Melanie Lyn McGuire, and Michael Bruce Ross.
For decades, renowned criminologist Christopher Berry-Dee has interviewed imprisoned, infamous serial killers and now he peels back the curtain, engaging with the psychiatrists tasked to understand their deviant minds.
As Berry-Dee dives deeper than ever before, he uncovers a disturbing pattern: the utter lack of remorse displayed by these individuals is often more horrifying than the crimes they’ve committed. Even more alarming, psychoanalysts admit that these murderers have an insidious ability to mask their true nature behind a facade of normalcy. Their behavior defies comprehension, even to the professionals who spend their livelihoods studying these aberrant minds.
With a gripping narrative and a wealth of research, Talking with Psychopaths: A Journey into the Evil Mind analyzes the darkest corners of the human brain. As Berry-Dee recounts his interviews, he exposes each layer of deception, seeking the best path to find the truth behind a psychopath’s mask.

Quotes

    Put simply, the question is, are these killer types born evil, or are they born with healthy minds that ‘become evil’ over time? It is the Nature versus Nurture topic of discussion, these days more generally called the ‘Nature and Nurture debate’, one that has been for decades at the forefront of criminologists’ minds and especially the minds of psychologists. My friends at the FBI, and many of the forensic psychologists of my acquaintance, have been struggling with this question for ages when trying to determine with some degree of accuracy when these ‘points’ are reached in any specific offender’s history in whom they have an interest.
    Local law enforcement does not really care too much about such things as Nature versus Nurture: the body of a murder victim is found and their sole responsibility is to bring the offender before the courts. Job done, they move onto the next corpse

    But for those who have a professional interest in what makes these killers tick it is tantamount to trying to get fingerprints from running water.
