How did this book get published?
ms. brown is proof that every now and then the sob sisters you find on crime message boards can actually get attention above and beyond being made moderators of their little web fiefdoms. pat brown has no business profiling. i wouldn't be surprised if the majority of this book was re-hashed from lesser known texts written by others who may have actual knowledge of the subject. additionally - when was the last time anyone ever saw pat brown doing real profiling? she doesn't have time, for one thing, she's too busy getting her mug on tv. this book could have been written by anyone with a word processor and access to lots of profiling texts. save yourself some money and look for books with names like ressler or douglas on the cover. profiling as a crime-solving tool may be useless anyway, but at least books by john douglas or robt. ressler were written by people with real world experience dealing with sexually-motivated homicide and not a soccer mom who once had a freaky renter and decided to make her life more interesting by playing profiler. bottom line - waste of money and time, bordering on fraudulent.

A Clean-Cut, Can't Put Down, Mother of All Profiling Books...
I recommend this book to any aspiring profiler. Yes, the other reviews can be similar to mine, but i would not 'not' read this book. I have not been able to put this one down. I have even used it in a report i wrote for college. It is a useful tool, and i would read it again and again...in a heartbeat!!! Great read, i love it..Thank you, Pat Brown!!!!

Right To The Punch!
Pat Brown's book 'Killing For Sport', gets right to the punch on telling the story of serial killers. She not only tells you what to look for in creepy minded people, but danger signs to watch out for. She leaves nothing out. An intense, easy reading, hard to put down book, with lots of facts and a twist of a light humor. A must have book.
