Summary
In the number one New York Times best seller Mindhunter, John Douglas, who headed the FBI's elite Investigative Support Unit, told the story of his brilliant and terrifying career tracking down some of the most heinous criminals in history. Now, working again with his coauthor Mark Olshaker, Douglas delves further into the criminal mind with a series of chilling new cases.
Follow the FBI’s premier investigative profiler as he penetrates the minds and motives of the most terrifying serial killers.
In Journey into Darkness, Douglas profiles vicious serial killers, rapists and child molesters. Some of the unique cases Douglas discusses include the Claremont killer, the schoolgirl murders that became known as Canada’s 'trial of the century', Richmond, Virginia’s first serial murderer, and the double homicide of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman.
With Journey into Darkness, Douglas provides more than a glimpse into the minds of serial killers; he demonstrates what a powerful weapon behavioural science has become. Profiling criminals helps not only to capture them but also helps society understand how these predators work and what can be done to prevent them from striking again.
Journey into Darkness continues this perilous trip into the psyche of the serial killer but also offers a glimmer of hope that profiling may enable law enforcement to see the indicators of a serial killer's mind and intervene before he kills - or kills again.

Strong stomach required
After reading other reviews I expected to be put off by the narrator but really liked him. He sounded like an older gentleman, which is in keeping with the author. This is an odd book, part crime story, part advice on keeping children safe, part musing on crime and punishment. The first few minutes are gruesome and I nearly returned it because of that. Later on I skipped some of he more horrible details. However, a fascinating book.

A bit preachy
Not as well written, or performed as "The Killer Across The Table", nor as good as "Mindhunter".

kind of dragged on a bit at the end
with JD pontificating on the death penalty it became a bit tiresome. I thoroughly enjoyed the rest of the book though it was a tough listen at times

Yet another engaging book from this amazing author
Having read two other books from the same author, this did not disappoint! Douglas is entrancing with his experience and knowledge within this field. Only thing that let it down slightly was the narrator, could not take to him at all.

Great book, Off-putting narration
The content of this book is great, it’s certainly a tough read but it’s interesting and insightful. What I really struggled with was the narration, to me, it’s just jarring. Because of that, I recommend listening to The Killer Across the Table, and reading this book instead.

Excellent quality, excellent value!
A really good book without being gratuitous. I learned a lot from it, especially how to keep myself safe.
Its also great for parents and carers on how to keep your children safe. I would highly recommend it.

Great book aprt from 2 chapters
I am a big fan of this author and have nothing but total respect for what he has achieved. This book however wanders way off script first a lecture on how to raise children then in the following chapter a long monologue of minor detail on the raising of 2 adopted children made it the reading very tedious.
