About this listen

The FBI's Legendary Profiler Probes the Psyches of Killers, Rapists, and Stalkers and Their Victims and Tells How to Fight Back

In Obsession, John Douglas once again takes us fascinatingly behind the scenes, focusing his expertise on predatory crimes, primarily against women. With a deep sense of compassion for the victims and an uncanny understanding of the perpetrators, Douglas looks at the obsessions that lead to rape, stalking, and sexual murder through such cases as Ronnie Shelton, the serial rapist who terrorized Cleveland, and New York's notorious "Preppie Murder".

Generated voice was distracting

There's a computer generated female voice for some of the narration in here. It's a hard listen.
This is one of the weaker of Douglas's books. The telling of the crimes is a bit all over the place and it's two different people- but flows like it's one crime. I thought the book would focus on all aspects of the crimes but it really heavily focuses on rape which is a hard read. In addition, while I know he has the best intentions, the end of the book telling women how to not get raped is a bit much and outdated.
