Jillian Lauren set out to research a serial killer for a novel. Instead, she put one at the centre of her life.
Months of exchanging letters with Samuel Little in prison landed her a face-to-face meeting - and the trust of a monster. In the hours of harrowing interviews that followed, Little confessed to the murders of ninety-three women, making him America's most prolific serial killer. As the investigations escalated, the disturbing relationship took its toll on Lauren, both psychologically and legally - but she couldn't stop.
Conversations with a psychopath, intertwined with intensely personal experience and the stories of those killed told for the first time, result in an unforgettable true crime account. Behold the Monster is a journey into a mind and murderer that shocked the world, but one that ultimately lifts the lives of the victims with such grace that we cannot look away.©2023 Jillian Lauren (P)2023 Hachette Audio UK

Hard to follow
Majority of book feels like an X rated Mills & Boon, too much artistic license by the author. A momentary lapse in concentration while listening and you have no idea what is going on.

Incredible story told very badly
Audiobooks live and die by the quality of its narrator so this one died. Narrator was awful and made it very hard to follow. There was no way of knowing where conversations were happening as the same drab tone was carried throughout.
The manner of how the story was told was also very poor. Liberties were taken with artistic licence which made it more akin to a novel than true crime.
I couldn't finish the book.
