La vicenda del Mostro di Firenze costituisce la più lunga inchiesta giudiziaria del nostro Paese: una serie di duplici delitti dal 1968 al 1985, una sentenza finale che lascia casi irrisolti e non convince nemmeno gli stessi magistrati. La prima parte è dedicata al racconto delle circostanze di tutti gli otto duplici omicidi del Mostro di Firenze, e alla ricostruzione, quasi sempre controversa, della loro dinamica. La seconda parte è un excursus nella ramificata gamma di teorie, con i loro pro e i loro contro, sull'identità del (o dei) "serial killer delle coppiette".

For decades, a father in the Bay Area made his living taking people’s portraits, but he harbored a monstrous secret. When one woman vanished in 1976, the only clue police had was that she’d gone to a restaurant to meet a photographer about a modeling job.

But then in 2010, a probation officer caught a lucky break.

Con la sua prosa intensa e incalzante, Stefano Nazzi ripercorre quei decenni bui, portandoci nelle menti di alcuni dei più spaventosi serial killer americani. Accanto a loro, ci sono le storie delle donne e degli uomini che li hanno inseguiti, studiati, catalogati. Negli scantinati di Quantico, due agenti dell'FBI, Robert Ressler e John Douglas, iniziarono ad analizzare i profili degli assassini seriali e poi a parlare con loro. Da quelle conversazioni nacque il profiling, l'idea che dietro l'apparente caos ci fosse un metodo e che dunque si potessero prevedere azioni imprevedibili.
