A Law Enforcement Must Read
Roy Hazelwood is clearly tops in the field of Sexual Criminal Profiling. There is a wealth of knowledge that can be gleened from this mans vast experiences. The book is broken up into a number of fasinating chapters each of which hold the readers attention from start to finish. He has managed to reveal enough about the skill used to profile the Sexual Predator with out making this a "how to" book on how to avoid detection. Hazelwood appears to be a far more humble man than his former partner John Douglas. (Mind Hunter). As a Law enforcement officer you can't help but appreciate the pace and detail of this book. Everything form DAHMER to ZODIAC KILLERS is touched on. A talent like Roy Hazelwood comes along once in a blue moon. Don't miss out. Your Library isn't complete without This Book !

Hazelwood should've picked a different writer
While I don't discount Roy Hazelwood's expertise, I felt the book was not well-written. Stories lacked details of the criminal's acts and psychological explanations were brief. There were many opportunities to expand on a particular subject, but instead, I was left hanging and wanting to know more. Also, it was occasionally hard to get past Michaud's style of writing. Despite Hazelwood's fascinating career as a behavioral profiler, this book didn't do him justice. Perhaps a good, second book will remedy this...?

Can do without
It is a shame that Stephen Michaud let Roy Hazelwood contribute to this book. If Stephen Michaud would have done it alone, I think it would have been great. Unfortunately that was not the case.

For those who have not read Roy Hazelwood's work, let me explain that it has been my experience as hard core criminology and profile researcher, that his books are more about him and his ego (if you will) then the subject itself.

Roy Hazelwood needs to concentrate on setting constructive examples of his very broad and interesting experience...yet we only get information from him like we are reading a resume.

Other then that, The book has some good information, but if you have other books from Stephen Michaud, you will see some repetition. Not a must.
