Nigel Latta is a forensic psychologist. He spends his working life with the sort of people most of us would prefer to pretend didn't exist. In this new edition of his ground-breaking book, which is the inspiration for the TVNZ series Beyond the Darklands, Nigel takes us inside the minds of some of the most chilling characters to walk our streets. As writer and presenter of Beyond the Darklands, Nigel has updated his book to include new material on significant recent cases since it was last released in 2005. Now a respected media commentator and recognised expert in sexual abuse, sexual crimes and for his work with severely disturbed children and young people, Nigel is a regular columnist with Littlies Magazine and has a parenting slot on National Radio. The television series Beyond The Darklands will be screening post July 2007 and will be marketed and publicised by TVNZ as a major local documentary series, further increasing Nigel's profile.

This is an amazing book if you are truly interested in the minds of a criminal. The way that Nigel writes a very open and honest book, an easy read, very hard to put down.
Not for the faint-hearted, but a must read for anyone interested in taking a look into the dark side of life. Gives a behind-the-scenes look for anyone preparing to work in the field; a real reality check for what life is like beyond the darklands. PS. Don't lend it out because you won't get it back!!
This book is a must read.
Nigel Latta is a very experienced, shrewd practitioner. His stories and insights are very very perceptive, and his writing syle is a refreshing straight, no pc crap tell it as it really is style.
A very unique aspect is that Nigel is obviously a very passionate and good man, who is not s polite wet lefty softy, but yet has real empathy for his subject.
I could write lots more, but, really -- BUY the BOOK and read it
Good book about how criminals think. Nigel Latta writes in a very straightforward way and his anecdotes are pretty off the wall as far as most peoples experiences are concerned. Easy to read and interesting and I hope he writes a sequel.
Absolutely brilliant book - once I started reading it I couldnt put it down. Really encompasses the true issues that not only perpetrators and victims face but also the professionals in the area. Well written and a must for anyone who works in this type of field, as well as anyone interested in the darkness of humanity.
