The Hidden Cost of True Crime... Did I Interview Too Many Murderers? - HARDBACK
J K Lee
What does it take to face death, stare into the darkest corners of humanity—and still find a way to laugh, love, and survive?
This powerful and deeply personal memoir follows John, a seasoned homicide detective, as he navigates a life shaped by unimaginable extremes. From interviewing serial killers and confronting brutal crimes, to fighting his own battle with bowel cancer, John’s story is one of resilience, courage, and raw honesty.
Told with both grit and unexpected humour, this book reveals the hidden realities behind policing, the emotional toll of witnessing humanity at its worst, and the silent struggles that follow long after the job is done. Alongside this is a deeply moving account of family strength—told through Lynette’s reflections—as they endure diagnosis, surgery, recovery, and the lasting impact of trauma.
