"I Am a Killer: What Makes a Murderer: Their Shocking Stories in Their Own Words" by Danny Tipping

Discuss a true crime book. This month we are discussing "I Am a Killer: What Makes a Murderer: Their Shocking Stories in Their Own Words" by Danny Tipping

What goes through the mind of a killer when they commit murder? Based on the massively successful Netflix documentary series of the same name, this book features ten of the most compelling cases from the series and is full of exclusive never-seen-before material. In each of the cases the inmate speaks openly about themselves and reflects on their life and their crimes. To gain a complete picture of the impact of the murders, the authors spoke to the families of both the perpetrators and the victims, and those in law enforcement who were involved in the case, leaving it up to the reader to make up their own mind about the killers and their crimes. This book paints an intimate and often disturbing portrait of these criminals, drawing on handwritten letters from the inmates, full transcripts of the interviews, personal pictures, crime scene images, and original police and court documents, this is a fascinating and detailed look at some of America's most gripping murder cases. -From the Publisher
