The case of Javed Iqbal, an alleged serial killer, attracted great attention around the world. Killing of even one person is a heinous act, but here is a man attributed with about a hundred cold-blooded murders of persons of young and tender ages. In the examination of this world renown case, Dr. Sohail has taken pains to examine this shocking episode from the point of view of a psychiatrist. As William J. McCormack, Chief of Police (Ret.), Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto, Canada says, "During my career on the Homicide Squad of the Metropolitan Toronto Police, I solved over 100 murders but never have I seen a crime so riddled with unanswered questions as this one. The entire question of the rise of serial killers across the world should be everyone's concern including their upbringing, psychology and environment, but most importantly, the increasing danger they present to society and to those who dedicate themselves "To Serve and Protect." Sohail has travelled a long journey in distance and depth to explore and uncover the motivation and working of the troubled mind of a killer. In his book, drawing from world literature, he skillfully presents the analysis of experts in the field of human abnormal behavior. His own interpretation of the killer's state of mind, which is based on his years of experience in the helping profession, creates an insightful and absorbing story.
