Overview
An in-depth examination of serial killers throughout human history, how they evolved, and why we are fascinated by their horrifying crimes.
In Sons of Cain investigative historian Peter Vronsky examines our understanding of serial killing from its prehistoric anthropological evolutionary dimensions in the pre-civilization era (c. 15,000 BC) to today. Delving back into human history and deep into the human psyche, he focuses strictly on sexual serial killers: thrill killers who engage in murder, rape, torture, cannibalism and necrophilia, as opposed to for-profit serial killers, including hit men, or ''political'' serial killers, like terrorists or genocidal murderers.
