About this listen

 DRUG LORDS. BLACK WIDOWS. CONTRACT KILLERS. MASS MURDERERS. PSYCHOPATHS. EVIL GENIUSES. No one gets closer to Australia’s craziest characters than Tim ‘Doc’ Watson-Munro, a criminal psychologist with 40 years’ experience assessing the mad, bad and dangerous. Tim started his career in the country’s toughest jail – ‘a shrink in the clink’ – and has assessed over 30,000 criminals to become a pioneer in the world’s understanding of evil in our society. But it came at a cost. Tim’s appetite for knowledge about the dark side of humanity mutated. He spiralled into depression, addiction and mental collapse. The ‘Doc’ became the patient. Now, in a series of thrilling, chilling, amazing true tales from a life at the coalface of gaols and the justice system, Tim takes us deep into the minds behind Australia’s most notorious crimes. Lock up and look out … A Shrink in the Clink is a real-life journey into the shadows.©2018 Tim Watson-Munro (P)2019 Bolinda Publishing Biographies & Memoirs Mental Health Psychology Scary

Certainly doesn't mince his words

This is the second of Tim's books I've read and it was just as enjoyable as Dancing with demons. Well narrated, articulate (as always), interesting and engaging content (although I had to skip the chapter about the toilet fetish!).

They walk amongst us.

Get a New Narrator

Could probably be quite interesting but couldn't get past the first chapter as the author's voice puts me to sleep. Flat, dead, zero emotion... weirdly intonates some sentence as though they are questions, even though they're not... would listen to it with a different reader.

Disappointing

The subject matter is very enticing- who doesn't want to gain an insight into the psychology of the criminal mind? It's endlessly fascinating in most contexts.
However, this book consists of mainly dull anecdotes about criminals the author met, combined with general knowledge about other serious criminals that we already know. Not deep, not even very interesting.
However the WORST thing about this book is the fact that the author read it himself! He has atrocious intonation, like he is reading a shopping list. He pauses in the middle .....of a clause. Then goes up?...for no reason. And it's his own words...
