Between Good and Evil: A Master Profiler's Hunt for Society's Most Violent Predators by Roger L. Depue

BATB Score: 8/10 🕵️‍♀️

“People die too easily. It should be more painful, and take longer.” - a glimpse into the minds of killers

Best as: Between Good and Evil: A Master Profiler's Hunt for Society's Most Violent Predators; the firsthand experiences of a criminal profiler through the gruesome violent homicides and savage rape cases 💯

Best for: a life in a life of a serial killer profiler, detective, forensics, cop, psychologist combine

Best to: this book could have been a 10/10 if it just focus on the crimes; sadly, it was written like a life-to-date memoir which unnecessarily includes death of first wife, grief, midlife crisis, Jesus, and second wife - like an old uncle babbling his tales

Best quotes: “All that is necessary for evil to triumph is that good men do nothing.”

“Knowing what humans are really capable of doing to each other makes you aware that civility is a luxury which can be discarded at will.”

“They began with an innocent victim begging for her life, and ended, hours later, as she pleaded for death.”

“That which you love is what I most seek to destroy.”

I and the public know

What all schoolchildren learn

Those to whom evil is done

Do evil in return
