ONE HUNDRED KILLERS. SIX CENTURIES. EVERY CORNER OF THE WORLD.
A charming law student. A trusted family doctor. A decorated military commander. A grandmother who laughed as she confessed.
They lived among us, and for years nobody saw them.
The 100 Faces of Evil runs from a nobleman tried in fifteenth-century France to the genealogy database that unmasked the Golden State Killer. It tells what drove each killer, how each one was finally stopped, and the harder question of why so many were able to keep killing.
Retired law enforcement lieutenant Robert F. Geissler separates documented fact from myth. Each profile opens with a Case File giving the confirmed victims, the dates and the outcome. Each one closes with the lessons the case holds for investigators, institutions and communities.
Inside you'll find:
- 100 profiles across the Americas, Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia
- Killing partners, healthcare killers, women who kill, and predators of the internet age
- How profiling, DNA and genetic genealogy changed the hunt
- A full reference appendix, including a timeline, a country index and all 100 Case Files
The book is fact-checked throughout and keeps its focus on the victims. It doesn't glorify these killers. It exposes them.
Revised and expanded edition, with 14 new profiles.
