<DIV><b>Linda Fairstein unmasks the true face of psychopathy, and reveals the warning signs that every woman should know</b></div><DIV><BR>The 2009 &ldquo;Craigslist Killer&rdquo; murder case shocked America, not just because of the heinous nature of the crimes but because their perpetrator&mdash;a handsome young law student with an unsuspecting girlfriend&mdash;seemed a very unlikely suspect. This killer, like others before him, had learned to leverage his charm and golden-boy looks to lure his victims, a skill many psychopaths learn to master. In <i>Killer Charm</i>, legal expert Linda Fairstein draws on her decades of experience in the Manhattan District Attorney&rsquo;s office to uncover what traits psychopaths often share, and how to spot them. She illustrates these points with the stories of some of America&rsquo;s most notorious sex criminals, such as Ted Bundy and Marvin Teicher.</div><DIV>&#160;</div><DIV>Originally published in&#160;<i>Cosmopolitan</i>, this essay is now available in digital format for the first time and&#160;features a new introduction by the author.</div>
