The Profiler
ByPublisher Description
In 1990, a young woman was strangled on a jogging path near the home of Pat Brown and her family. Brown suspected the young man who was renting a room in her house, and quickly uncovered strong evidence that pointed to him -- but the police dismissed her as merely a housewife with an overactive imagination. It would be six years before her former boarder would be brought in for questioning, but the night Brown took action to solve the murder was the beginning of her life's work.
Pat Brown is now one of the nation's few female criminal profilers -- a sleuth who assists police departments and victims' families by analyzing both physical and behavioral evidence to make the most scientific determination possible about who committed a crime. Brown has analyzed many dozens of seemingly hopeless cases and brought new investigative avenues to light.
In The Profiler, Brown opens her case files to take readers behind the scenes of bizarre sex crimes, domestic murders, and mysterious deaths, going face-to-face with killers, rapists, and brutalized victims. It's a rare, up-close, first-person look at the real world of police and profilers as they investigate crimes -- the good and bad, the cover-ups and the successes.

“I found the beginning interesting but as I got deeper into the book I just started to get annoyed. It seemed like paragraph after paragraph was just a rehash of things she already said. I don't know anything about her other then what I read in the book so she could very well be good at what she does but she came across in the book as a know-it-all and seemed to get defensive when the police detectives on any of the cases were not welcoming to her suggestions or even disagreed with her. I also wished that she included cases where her profiling actually helped close a case. Instead all the cases she went through remained unsolved. I would hope that she did help solve some cases in her time as a profiler otherwise yeah.”
