In this gripping fusion of true crime and historical fiction, Why Kill: The Silent Logic of Murder unveils the hidden motives behind killers' deadly acts. A Russian hitman's icy precision, a M laga vigilante's grief-fueled crusade, a revolutionary's bombs, a dark web hacker's desperate survival-each story shares a common thread: betrayal and murder. From Moscow's gang-ridden 1990s to Angola's diamond wars, these tales weave a chilling tapestry of power, vengeance, and broken trust. Grounded in vivid research and haunting prose, this book probes the silent logic driving murder-echoing through 2025's cartels, cybercrimes, and global conflicts. These are true stories. The events depicted span centuries and continents, from 1881 St. Petersburg to 2023 Seattle. Due to legal considerations surrounding the identities and their crimes, certain dates, locations, and specific details have been altered or fictionalized-yet the events, characters, and places remain rooted in actual history.
