Reveals what happens to those who survive horrific childhoods, only to commit terrifying crimes of their own. This work explores how unformulated traumata become embedded in Manichean scripts that provide meaning for otherwise inexplicable experiences of brutality and betrayal. It challenges the beliefs about criminal character and motivation.
