Murder for Company. The Story of Serial Killer Dennis Nilsen

In February 1983, residents of a London house on Muswell Hill experienced a blocked sewer. The plumber who arrived discovered a horrifying find in the basement — a mixture of human flesh and bones. The next day, one of the... residents named Dennis Nilsen was arrested on suspicion of murder. 'Are we talking about one body or two?' the police officer asked him. 'Fifteen or sixteen, starting from 1978. I will tell you everything. You have no idea how great it is to talk to someone about this,' Nilsen replied. It is extremely rare for a killer to speak so candidly and exhaustively about himself: his archive is an unprecedented document in the history of criminal murders, so detailed, filled with dark fantasies and shocking details. The unique material underlying the book — over 50 volumes of personal diaries, poems, and drawings — reveals the mindset of a maniac, allowing him to express himself in the first person. Incredibly psychological and shocking, the book immerses readers into the inner world of a killer, who, alongside the writer, seeks to understand what led him to his point of no return.
