Chikatilo. The Phenomenon of the Beast

In the mid-1980s, a series of horrific murders took place in Novocherkassk and its surroundings. The local police were powerless. They sought a dangerous criminal, a recidivist, but no one wanted to even think that the killer could be an ordinary person, their neighbor. Chikatilo's remarkable ability to mimic made him indistinguishable from millions of Soviet citizens. He lived in society and satisfied his sadistic sexual fantasies by destroying the most precious thing that society has – children. This book is the story of the double life of the most notorious serial killer in the Soviet Union, Andrei Chikatilo, and the investigation of his crimes, which formed the basis of the exclusive series "Chikatilo" on the multimedia service Okko.
