"The Will to Kill is unique in that it covers the topic from a perspective that is interesting to the casual true crime fan and yet is an invaluable resource to the serious professional who delves into the grisly world of murder."

-Col. Robert K. Ressler, professional criminologist

Through newscasts, current events, film and television, we are drawn irresistibly to the drama, mystery and intrigue of homicides, both real and invented.

But why do people commit murder? And how is murder turned into a drama played out on the national stage? The authors of The Will to Kill answer these questions by describing the motivations at the center of a killer's mentality.

Topics covered include:

School shootings

Intimate murders

Serial killers

Medical murder

Rampage

Hate crimes

Workplace murder

Terrorism

Cult killings

The justice system
