A couple of months back I came across a british website called 'Aspects of a Psychopath' at www.aoap.co.uk - at first glance it looked as if it was an attempt at passing off fictional events as real - a bit Blair Witch - however going by the messages on the message board on the site I wasn't the only one to think so but there was something about the style of writing that got me hooked.

As it is Aspects of a Psychopath is the journal of a serial killer on the loose in London. (having visited London a few times in the past I soon realised that the area it is set doesn't exist so that explained one issue). Anyway the way this guy writes really draws you in and you get a strong glimpse into the mind of this character. After the first few entries I was hooked and spent a good few hours returning to site to read the rest of it.

I've recently revisited the site to see if anymore had been added and have learned that it is due to be published as a book later this year. Unfortunately this means that they only the first month of the diary is now available to read. I was wondering if there was anyone else out there who has read the whole lot and has any comments on it or if they know whether the autor - Alistair Langston has written anything else. Although I was one of the priviledged ones to get to read Aspecst of a Psychopath before it was published I will still be placing my order for a copy as it was a fantastic read and I look forward to reading more from the same author.
