Jana Monroe is the FBI Behavioral Sciences Unit analyst upon whom the film character of Clarice in "The Silence of the Lambs" was modelled. Finally stepping out from the shadows, Monroe tells a 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 most, offering new insight into the minds of some of the world's most infamous and terrifying serial killers, as well as the psychological impact her work had on her day-to-day life.
