À propos de cet audio

In the number-one New York Times best seller Mindhunter, John Douglas, who headed the FBI's elite Investigative Support Unit, told the story of his brilliant and terrifying career tracking down some of the most heinous criminals in history. Now, in Journey into Darkness, Douglas profiles vicious serial killers, rapists, and child molesters. He is straightforward, blunt, often irreverent, and outspoken, but takes pains not to glorify any of these murderers.

Some of the unique cases Douglas discusses include:

  • The Clairemont killer
  • The schoolgirl murders
  • Richmond's first serial murderer
  • The brutal and sadistic murder of Suzanne Marie Collins
  • Polly Klaas' abduction and murder by Richard Allen Davis
  • The tragedy that lead to the creation of Megan's Law

With Journey into Darkness, Douglas provides more than a glimpse into the minds of serial killers; he demonstrates what a powerful weapon behavioral science has become. Profiling criminals helps not only to capture them, but also helps society understand how these predators work and what can be done to prevent them from striking again. Douglas focuses especially on pedophiles and child abductors, fully explaining what drives them and how to keep children away from them. As he points out, "The best way to protect your children is to know your enemy." He includes eight rules for safety, a list of steps parents can take to prevent child abduction and exploitation, tips on how to detect sexual exploitation, basic rules of safety for children, and a chart, based on age, that details the safety skills children should have to protect themselves.

In his review for Mindhunter in The New York Times Book Review, Dean Koontz said, "Because of his insights and the power of the material, he leaves us shaken, gripped by a quiet grief for the innocent victims and anguished by the human condition." Journey into Darkness continues this perilous trip into the psyche of the serial killer, but also offers a glimmer of hope that profiling may enable law enforcement to see the indicators of a serial killer's mind and intervene before he kills or kills again.

Two very talented writers

Very interesting to learn about all the cases worked on.. The science of profiling is so interesting and can't wait to read his other books.

Difficult subject, but we'll worth looking into..

Narrator was very engaging, great voice well aligned with subject matter. Crime and punishment two opposites that unfortunately too often come together and often the second does not match severity of the first. Difficult and challenging carrier that cost the author much health loss and pain, but his passion to stop the evil is well appreciated at least on my end. Great read, I would recommend it to everybody who has interests in human mind and justice.

Pretty Interesting, Bad Narrator

I didn’t hate the narrator, but he didn’t do the best job. It could just be the fact that I didn’t like his voice very much, which is a personal thing. But I would recommend trying a sample of the audiobook before purchasing, to make sure you’re okay with his voice

Book fails with its focus on how bad ONLY men are

As I listend to this, and I have gotten other John Douglas books, his writing is increasingly misandrist in nature, it gets so bad he will repeat and reinforce how its men do tis and men do that..yet statistically the facts show that women are not the angles he paints them to be. The book becomes increasing harder to listen to as he goes off on tangents and its like hes on a crusade for only certain people but other victims are just colateral damage, they are just a statistic. I highly suspect hes doing what many others have done for a buck or 2, paint the narrative in a very certain way. The courts and politicians are extremely corrupt as are the police and the FBI, but according to douglas, they are the symbols of all that is good. This book goes of on speils about how evil men are, when we see how evil if not more so, women can be. But not in this book, it focusses too much on single people rather than what his job was supposed to be. Previous books were well written and very foccussed but this one and obsession are a massive drop in standard and seem to be pushing an agenda...

Repetitive with Mind Hunter...

The narrator was ok. a few times I felt the need to forward as it was already published in the Mind Hunter book.
Otherwise, the book is okay.
