New York:: St Martin's Minotaur, , (2017). Hardcover first edition -. Near fine in a fine dust jacket (highlighting to a few of the sources at the back of the book) . First printing. A fascinating account of the hunt for a serial bomber stalked the streets of 1950s New York. "The race to catch him would give birth to a new science called criminal profiling. For almost two decades, no place was safe from the man who signed his anonymous letters FP and left his lethal devices in phone booths, storage lockers, even tucked into the plush seats of movie theaters. . . In desperation, Police Captain Howard Finney sought the help of a little known psychiatrist, Dr. James Brussel, whose expertise was the criminal mind. Examining crime scene evidence and the strange wording in the bombers letters, he compiled a portrait of the suspect down to the cut of his jacket. But how to put a name to the description? Seymour Berkson, the publisher of the tabloid The Journal-American, joined in pursuit of the Mad Bomber and the three men hatched a brilliant scheme to catch him at his own game." Illustrated with photographs. Source notes, index. 290 pp. Photographic endpapers.
