Description
July 22, 2011 was the darkest day in Norway's history since Nazi Germany's invasion. it was one hundred eighty-nineminutes of terror-- from the moment the bomb exploded outside a government building until anders Behring Breivik was apprehended by the police at Utøya island. Breivik murdered seventy-seven people, most of them teenagers and young adults, and wounded hundreds more. The massacre left the world in shock. Breivik is a new type of mass murderer, and he is notalone. indeed, he is archetype of the "lone wolf killer," often overlooked until the moment they commit their crime. He has inspired others like him, just as Breivik was inspired by Timothy Mcveigh and Theodore kaczynski. No other killerhas murdered more people singlehandedly in one day. adam Lanza studied Breivik's now infamous manifest oprior to his own unthinkable crime. Breivik was Lanza's role model, as he will no doubt be for others in the future who are frustrated with their societies and, most of all, their lives.Breivik is also unique as he is the only "lone wolf" killer in recent history to still be alive and in captivity. With unparalleled research and a unique international perspective,Terror in plain Sight examines the massacre itself and why this lone-killer phenomenon is increasing worldwide. Unni turrettini was born in northern Norway and grew up in drammen, a city near oslo, approximately twenty minutes from where Breivik was raised. She currently lives with her family in geneva, Switzerland, and is at work on a second book, a behind-the-scenes examination of the Nobel peace prize.Kathleen m. puckett, PHD., is an FBI behavioral analyst who provides behavioral threat assessment consultation to international corporations and governmental security agencies. She is the co-author of Hunting the americanTerrorist.
