Riassunto

True tales of serial killers who went viral

Serial killers have been with us for decades. The internet has put them in our pockets

The Dnepropetrovsk Maniacs: A pair of teens go on a murderous spree, filming themselves along the way. When their deadly rampage is finished, more than 20 are dead and their exploits are immortalized in the most shocking video ever to circulate the internet, “3 Guys, 1 Hammer”

Pedro Rodrigues Filho, aka "Killer Petey": A serial killer with over 100 kills to his name prides himself on killing only murderers, rapists and pedophiles. When he walks free, he becomes a Youtube sensation

Mark Twitchell, aka the "Dexter" Serial Killer: A psychopath lures victims through online dating to use as “research” for his twisted film project

Psycho.com is a chilling look at what happens when murderous minds meet modern technology.

"What I loved most about the book is it wasn't just about the killers and what made them tick, but also focused on the victims who deserved to be remembered just as much if not more" - reviewer
