The Alienist by Caleb Carr

     There are a bunch of murders going on in 19th century New York.  Theodore Roosevelt puts together a team to help track down the killer.  This is a time when forensics and forensic psychology were in there infancy.  As they track down the killer they learn how to delve deep into a psychopaths minds.
    I found this a very good read.  It was a real page turner and keeps the reader wanting to read more.  I have read this book a couple times and have loved it every time.
