Renowned clinical psychologist and criminal expert Dr. Rachel Toles explores the terrifying minds of the world’s most infamous serial killers, revealing how many lived undetected among their neighbors for years before being apprehended. 

In this intense and thought-provoking presentation, Dr. Toles confronts the questions we’re both afraid and compelled to ask: Who are these notorious killers? How does a seemingly ordinary person become a mass murderer? Why are we so fascinated by them? Why are most serial killers white males? And why do some women fall in love with serial killers?
