For fans of Mindhunter and Criminal Minds, a chilling account of a woman facing down serial killers as one of the first female profilers of the FBI Behavioral Sciences Unit and real-life model for The Silence of the Lambs’s Clarice Starling
"Jana Monroe is the single most influential woman to ever serve in the FBI."—Joe Navarro, bestselling author of What Every BODY Is Saying
Jana Monroe was no ordinary cop: a cofounder of—and, at the time, the only female agent in—the world-renowned FBI Behavioral Sciences Unit at Quantico, over the course of her career she consulted on more than 850 homicide cases. Through her work, she and her BSU colleagues crossed paths with Ted Bundy, Jeffrey Dahmer, Edmund Kemper, Aileen Wuornos, and hundreds of other murderers; were at the Branch Davidian Compound in Waco; traced the Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh’s tracks; and, in the wake of 9/11, headed up a new and expanded FBI headquarters in Las Vegas.
But to the people who know her best, Monroe is the BSU analyst upon whom the film character of Clarice (Jodie Foster) in The Silence of the Lambs was modeled; she even helped train Foster for the role. Over the course of an utterly astonishing and, until now, relatively anonymous career in shaping law enforcement and intelligence analysis, her legacy is without parallel yet not known to the public. Hearts of Darkness is Monroe’s incredible story and will have Monroe—now retired from the FBI—finally stepping out from the shadows to tell the range of gripping, sometimes gruesome, and always remarkable tales from the top moments of a life chasing the monsters among us. Hearts of Darkness will shock, enthrall, educate, and examine both extremes of human behavior—good and evil—as well as the daily norm found in the middle of this spectrum.

Never the less, it turned out feeling like an apologetic treatise for the atrocities of Waco, and Ruby Ridge-absolutely disgusting. Jana may truly believe what she wrote, only she knows.
What I remember about Waco was:
-Federal Agents in the area brutalized female Escorts, and never paid them. One poor soul called them “Bastards.” Jana should look into that.
-The blaze in the compound started quickly as if an Incindiary (White Phosphorous) shell was fired into it. These get a raging fire started real quick. WP burns clear to the bone and you need specialized chemicals to put it out.
I could go on and on, but that is enough. I regret buying this book for the above reasons. Sorry Jana.
