From The Publisher:

'Serial killers experience the power over Iife and death as omnipotence. Since they have little control over their own lives and feelings, they become addicted to the omnipotence that control over someone else's life gives them. Therefore, they will kill repetitively. It restores the mental imbalance they experience whenever their self-worth is challenged...when I interrogate a serial killer I dive into the blackness of his soul. I am familiar with his feelings of emptiness, loneliness, depression, death, omnipotence and fear. I dive deeply to get a grip on his torment...' A profiler who wants to understand the mind of the serial killer must be prepared by life experiences before daring to venture into the abyss. A person who has led a protected life will not survive.
