Question: anybody have really really good recs on novels with, by or about serial killers? Movies also acceptable. Will be renting Manhunter later this month. Bonus points if there's "if you stare into the abyss" angst from the person hunting the murderer.

(I'm asking for raven-verse. Trying to get into the killer's head a little.)

There's the "The Shrine of Jeffrey Dahmer" by Brian Masters.

Dahmer killed something like 37 boys before he was caught. The whole thing was this huge controversy in Milwaukee because the cops found a 14 year old boy running naked through the streets thought it was a lovers spat and gave him back to Dahmer who then killed him. The cops were not only found not guilty but were given their jobs back.
