Chambers of Horror is a study of the warped thinking that went into some of the world's most macabre crimes, as well as a clinical examination of the purpose-built rooms hidden spaces and soundproof dungeons increasingly prepared for victims.

H. Holmes, John T. Jamelske, and Joachim Kroll. Author John Marlowe specializes in providing concise yet detailed case-by-case examinations of dangerous individuals. Here he presents a carefully chosen cross-section of some of the world's most depraved modern criminals, whose fascinating life stories are viewed with an unflinching gaze, making for a chilling yet engrossing read. Perfect bedtime reading for those who want to know what is going on in those hidden, dark places the sun never reaches - where looking down the back of the sofa could lead to a very scary discovery.
