About the Book

A Passion for Crime is a fictional composite of a career lawbreaker, his accomplices, and the many types of crimes they commit. The novel describes the development of criminal anti social behavior from early years to adulthood and reveals the thinking errors that provide justification for continually committing deviant acts. It also depicts his numerous contacts with the law and correctional systems and illustrates how lies and mockery are used to skirt responsibility. Reading the novel will provide a better understanding of the rationale utilized by these people as they commit the many crimes reported daily in the media.
