Confessions of a Gentleman Killer

Confessions of a Gentleman Killer

Johnny Payne

About this book

London, 1843 He hadn't planned to become a murderer. In fact, he had dreamed of graduating from Oxford, settling down with Cecilia, the love of his life, opening a small law practice, having a child, and stealing away from his overbearing in-laws. That's not what happened. Kilcairn is a brilliant man with a philosopher's mind, ambitious and capable, gentle and thoughtful. But when his life begins to unravel, blood lust overtakes him and his life of crime begins. Was the urge always there? If not, who pulled the string that began his demise? An intimate peek into one serial killer's mind, Confessions of a Gentleman Killer asks readers just what motivates a man who, otherwise, would be the perfect gentleman.
