Shane Stevens, By Reason of Insanity
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Review:
Back in the '70s, when the term "serial killer" wasn't yet popular, Shane Stevens wrote this long, exquisitely detailed novel about a psychopathic murderer. Thomas Bishop escapes from an insane asylum at age 25 and begins what he fully intends to be a historic career as a multiple murderer. He is meticulous, intelligent, conscious of what he is doing, and utterly amoral. And we are inside his head, every step of the way--a welcome approach compared to contemporary works that focus on a detective or reporter protagonist. The New York Times called it "violent realism . . . extremely effective."
About the Author:
Shane Stevens is the author of numerous books, including The Anvil Chorus, Dead City, Go Down Dead, Rat Pack, and Way Uptown in Another World.
