The structure guides readers through victimology and the predatory mind, then details escalating forms of predatory conduct across categories such as crimes against children, the elderly, sexual assault, domestic violence, kidnapping, homicide, and cyber grooming.

We worked together for five years and have enjoyed a close personal and professional association since that time. Greg was a quick study and excelled as a criminal profiler. Because of my confidence in his abilities, he was given an opportunity usually reserved for senior agents—to testify asan expert witness in criminal behavior analysis. I highlighted this case in my New York Times best-selling book Mind Hunter (Simon & Schuster) asan example of the effective use of criminal investigative analysis in linking cases to common offenders.
