How to Catch a Killer: Hunting and Capturing the World's Most Notorious Serial Killers (Profiles in Crime)

The Vienna Courier. The Killer Clown. The Son of Sam. The Angel of Death.

How serial killers are profiled, hunted and caught is equally as compelling as the narratives of the crimes themselves. In How to Catch a Killer, the history of forensic innovation, detailed behavioral profiling, and solid police work is told through thirty international "capture stories" of infamous and lesser-known serial killers, from 1898 to 2003.
