Trade Review
A riveting exploration of the psychology of those who have committed unthinkable crimes. It's also hugely insightful and thought provoking about our justice system, I read it from cover to cover in one go. David's professional experiences make an absolutely compelling read for anyone who is interested in the criminal mind and its motivations
Wilson's fascinating career brought him into contact with Britain's most violent criminals. In this
gripping book, he
moves beyond the usual media sensationalism to discuss in detail his life among our prison system's most notorious murderers, serial killers, sex offenders and hitmen.

Page-turning stuff. I'm sure this book will prove to be a great hit
