Recent years have seen a revival of the heated culture wars of the 1990s, but this time its battleground is the Internet. On one side the alt-right ranges from the once obscure neo-reactionary and white separatist movements, to geeky subcultures like 4chan, to more mainstream manifestations such as the Trump-supporting gay libertarian Milo Yiannopolous. On the other side, struggle sessions and virtue signaling lurk behind a therapeutic language of trigger warnings and safe spaces. The feminist side of the online culture wars has its equally geeky subcultures.

The most common triggers for homicide are fear, rage, revenge, money, lust, and, more rarely, sheer madness. This isn’t an exact science, of course. Any given murder can have multiple triggers. Sex and revenge seem to be common partners in crime. This book offers my memories of homicide cases that I investigated or oversaw. In each case, I examine the trigger that led to death. I chose this theme for the book because even though the why of a murder case may not be critical in an investigation, it can sometimes lead us to the killer.

Die häufigsten Auslöser für Mord sind Angst, Wut, Rache, Geld, Lust und, wesentlich seltener, blanker Wahnsinn. Natürlich ist das keine exakte Wissenschaft. Jedem beliebigen Mord können mehrere Trigger zugrunde liegen. Sex und Rache scheinen als Auslöser für Verbrechen oft Hand in Hand zu gehen. Wut, Geld und Rache sind ein weiteres gefährliches Dreiergespann. In diesem Buch habe ich meine Erinnerungen an Mordfälle, in denen ich ermittelt oder die Ermittlungen beaufsichtigt habe, gesammelt. In jedem dieser Fälle beleuchte ich die Trigger, die zum Mord geführt haben.

In Sons of Cain - a book that fills the gap between dry academic studies and sensationalized true crime - investigative historian Peter Vronsky examines our understanding of serial killing from its prehistoric anthropological evolutionary dimensions in the pre-civilization era (c. 15,000 BC) to today.

Charlie Seiga was one of the most dangerous faces of the criminal underworld. There were many unsolved killings which were swift, brutal and brilliantly organised. The victims—liberty takers and sadists—were all hard bastards who dealt in the most vicious kind of violence. Many times the police marked him out as the vicious contract killer. He was also one of the most successful villains of his time. Police believed that he was the brains behind major firms involved in robberies on banks, security vans, lorry hijacking, safe breaking and many other serious crimes.

But Joey really made his name as a Mafia assassin, racking up thirty-eight cold-blooded hits-thirty-five for cash, three for revenge.

July 22, 2011, was the darkest day in Norway's history since Nazi Germany's invasion. It was 189 minutes of terror - from the moment the bomb exploded outside a government building until Anders Behring Breivik was apprehended by the police at Utoya Island. Breivik murdered 77 people, most of them teenagers and young adults, and wounded hundreds more. Breivik is a "lone wolf killer", often overlooked until they commit their crime. Breivik is also unique as he is the only lone wolf killer in recent history to still be alive and in captivity.
