Audiobook: History of a Drowning Boy, Dennis Nilsen


This is a fascinating book. Normally serial killer books are written from a third party perspective, but this one is written from the killer, Dennis Nilsen himself. 

He killed 12 young men. He did glaze over how he was caught (Google said it was because of plumbing, the pipes in his apartment got clogged with human remains (!!) and the plumber reported it.)

It was also interesting to get detail and insight into what it is like in a prison.

All in all very very sad. 

It does sound like he did have remorse later in his life for his actions.
