Hearts of darkness : serial killers, the behavioral science unit, and my life as a woman in the FBI / Jana Monroe ; foreword by Joe Navarro.
Jana Monroe was no ordinary cop. One of the first analysts-and, at the time, the only female agent-in the world-renowned FBI Behavioral Science Unit, she consulted on more than 850 homicide cases, including infamous serial killers. Monroe was also the model for Clarice Starling in the movie version of 'The Silence of the Lambs'; she even helped train Jodie Foster for her Oscar-winning role. Monroe's later years found her dealing with the aftermath of Columbine, heading up the FBI's post-9/11 investigation in Las Vegas, and much more. A riveting memoir of a trailblazing woman's life hunting down the monsters among us, for fans of 'Mindhunter', 'Criminal Minds', 'My Favorite Murder', and 'The Silence of the Lambs'.
