Everyone knows the most common triggers for homicide are fear, rage, revenge, money, lust and sometimes madness. In this book, Joe Kenda offers his memories of homicide cases he investigated throughout his career.
In each case, he tried to examine what the trigger may have been when the crime occurred.
Usually, true crime books are mostly from the view of the victims or suspects, but in Killer Triggers the author tells his view. From the perspective of the law and Kenda’s thoughts as well. How he conducted the interviews was very interesting to follow, and also the obstacles he had to overcome to find the truth.
Each chapter is about one case, how the homicide happened and the investigation that followed, which gives this book a structured layout. Furthermore, I enjoyed the straightforward style of writing, the author comes across as very direct and doesn’t beat around the bush.
