Not with typical family drama, William Landay's twisted tale, "Defending Jacob", presents the Barbers on a spiraling downward course of disturbing events. Discussion will be wide-eyed. Please RSVP to Kate for our next meeting, this Thursday, July 17.
Pictured above is James Fallon, a neuroscientist from UC Irvine, and his family. Studying the brains of psychopaths for nearly 20 years, Fallon made a startling discovery: his ancestry of violent murderers. And there's much more..... please check out the story below:

Interesting that the mentioned factor of child abuse in the NPR report seems to be missing in Landay's book. Obviously this is not a precise and exacting condition... many factors involved.
Careful reading! (then you can reward yourself with a carefree reading!)
