Overview

We binge it. We click it. We can’t look away. Even when times are difficult, we still devour crime stories. But what does our obsession with crime say about us?

Bestselling authors join Kathryn Fox for a raw, revealing conversation about what lies beneath the surface: the psychology of violence, the pull of the darker side of human nature, and the blurred lines between truth and imagination.

Discover what drives these storytellers to live inside the minds of killers and victims–and how far they’ll go for authenticity. Is there a fine line between exploring violence and glorifying it? Between empathy and exploitation?

Gripping, funny and unflinchingly honest, Masters of Crime delves into what our darkest stories reveal about who we are–and why, even in troubled times, we still find light in darkness.
