I read this book only because the "Whisperer" it is about wrote to me and offered to be my friend. Normally I wouldn't read a book that so obviously sensationalizes rape and murder for corporate profit, unless I have some special interest, and in this case, because the man that this book is supposed to be about wrote to me, I did.
Of course, the book is about rape and murder, and murdering murderers as it turns out (one of the murderers in this book ended up being executed because of this book, which the author boasts about in this current edition), and it's depiction of the "Whisperer" is - according to what the "Whisperer" told me himself in his letters - extremely lacking and outright erroneous (though I wonder then why he promotes the book himself on his own personal website...?).
As for me, as soon as I learned that the "Whisperer" is still actively involved with marketed media organizations (apparently with T.V. and movies these days) I informed him that I could no longer correspond after exchanging just three letters. I wished him the best of luck and promised not to spill any of the "secrets" (my terminology) he revealed to me in his letters on this blog. So I wont.
