About Solving Stanley

Psychopaths and sociopaths share similarities but are different. The psychopath is a planner and schemer. They are ruthless, without a conscience, pathological liars and whatever happens, it's someone else's fault. The sociopath is spontaneous also without a conscience though they can feel pangs of guilt at times. A schizophrenic sees and hears people talking to him. They can only be seen or heard by the schizophrenic. Now, what if all three of these were combined in the same person? It would be the perfect storm of mental illness. That is Stanley Burnham. In short he is a monster and he has spread his murder across the country for thirty years without being caught, in fact no one knows who he is. Until Justin and Will figure it out but they must act carefully because they're no match for this killer. If he finds out they know then their family and friends will not be safe. Despite the best efforts of the police, Stanley continues to operate in Bloomington, killing whenever he wants. The town is gripped in terror. Can he be stopped and what role is destined for Justin and Will? Read Solving Stanley to find out.
