Overview
āJana Monroe is the single most influential woman to ever serve in the FBI.ā āJoe Navarro, bestselling author of What Every BODY Is Saying
Jana Monroe was no ordinary cop: a cofounder ofāand, at the time, the only female agent ināthe world renowned FBI Behavioral Sciences Unit at Quantico, over the course of her career she consulted on more than 850 homicide cases. Through her work, she and her BSU colleagues crossed paths with Ted Bundy, Jeffrey Dahmer, Edmund Kemper, Aileen Wuornos, and hundreds of other murderers; were also at the Branch Davidian Compound in Waco and traced the Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeighās tracks; and, in the wake of 9/11, headed up a new and expanded FBI headquarters in Las Vegas.
But to the people who know her best, Monroe is the BSU analyst upon whom the film character of Clarice (Jodie Foster) in The Silence of the Lambs was modeled; she even helped train Foster for the role. Over the course of an utterly astonishing and, until now, relatively anonymous career in shaping law enforcement and intelligence analysis, her legacy is without parallel yet not known to the public. Hearts of Darkness is Monroeās incredible story and will have Monroeānow retired from the FBIā finally stepping out from the shadows to tell the range of gripping, sometimes gruesome, and always remarkable tales from the top moments of a life chasing the monsters among us. Within its pages, Monroe offers insight into the cases that have stayed with her mostāfrom the infamous to lesser-known ones that readers will be introduced to for the first time in the bookāoffering new insight into the minds of some of the worldās most infamous and terrifying serial killers, as well as the psychological impact her work had on her day-to-day life. Hearts of Darkness will shock, enthrall, educate, and examine both extremes of human behaviorāgood and evilāas well as the daily norm found in the middle of this spectrum.
