One of those books that is "hard to put down" - although on Audible that probably should be "hard to switch off!"

So having so many American and European Serial Killers made famous through books, TV, films and other media, the insight into how the same phenomenon has been going on in India, in a different culture and legal process is fascinating.

The author narrates his own book - not a professional as some of the big production books on Audible, but makes the story more authentic.

The way the author portrays some of the cases is both shocking but captivating - it cannot fail to move you and make you consider life and people around you in a different light. Truly a book that makes you think and leaves an impression long after you have finished it.

This book really deserves to be read widely.

Shocking - but enthralling
