SynopsisOn 30 November, 1989, electrical repairman Richard Mallory disappeared from his home in Clearwater, Floria. He had become the first of eight victims of Aileen 'Lee' Wuornos, one of the very rare examples of female serial killers. Nobody understood what drove a woman to kill again and again. This is Lee's own story, backed by previously unpublished background research from leading criminologist Christopher Berry-Dee. She was born on the wrong side of the tracks in suburban Troy, Illinois. Wuornos's dysfunctional life was a wreck from the day she was born until the day she met her own premature and agonising demise at the hands of Florida's state executioner. The subject of three motion pictures, countless TV documentaries, books and newspaper features, her status has been elevated to that of a murderous cult figure since her death. The story of the woman the media dubbed the 'Damsel of Death', Monster is a minute examination of the inner workings of this female serial killer's mind and a chilling, yet revealing insight into the mind of a female psychopath from cradle to grave. Book jacket., Aileen Wuornos was a child prostitute after running away from an abusive childhood. Her metamorphosis from victim to attacker had brutal consequences - a stream of dead men. This is Aileen's story.

This book is NOT written by Aileen Wuornos as it states!!
There is only one set of Pros for this book: it contains about 40 pages of transcribed dialogue by Wuornos. Only these few pages make for interesting reading. The Cons for this book are basically everything else. It is very poorly written and apparently unedited. The entire book is a lie since Wuornos did NOT write this book as it states on the cover!! Although the author rails against the many money grabs about this case - this is just another of them. A total throwaway.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
