Pain Bleeds Crime

This is a new book. Condition: Brand New.

"The most dangerous people I met weren't monsters. They were broken children wearing adult faces."

Pamela Nathan, clinical and forensic psychologist and psychoanalytic psychotherapist, uncovers the inner worlds of society's most dangerous and broken-whether behind bars or hidden in plain sight.

In Pain Bleeds Crime, she shares twenty-three gripping true stories from her decades working in maximum-security prisons, courts, and forensic hospitals. The crimes are shocking-murder, rape, paedophilia, assault, fetishism, bestiality, and more-but what lies beneath is often even more confronting.

Each offender, whether male, female or transgender, reveals a hidden world shaped by trauma, pain, and silence. Pamela enters these inner worlds to feel and then to have revealed the internal crime scenes, to see what made them break-mentally, emotionally, morally. These aren't excuses. They're revelations.

You'll come face-to-face with people whose crimes horrified the public-people who insist they're not violent, or that "it just happened"-and come face-to-face with the dark truth: the past never really goes away. With unflinching honesty and rare insight, Pamela shows how the past never really stays buried-and how behind every act of violence, there's a story waiting to be told.

Brutally honest, deeply unsettling, and impossible to forget, Pain Bleeds Crime is a journey into the darkest parts of humanity.

"Mad, bad, or sad-when we listen to the story, we see the person."

"A chilling exploration of the trauma and pain behind the most heinous crimes."
