This gripping, fully illustrated book explores a range of well-known criminal cases in an innovative new format, using specially commissioned colour maps to chart the geography of each case. Mapping Crime tells the story of more than 40 murders, robberies, frauds, kidnappings and acts of terrorism, from the early twentieth century right up to the present day. Taking its lead from computerized geographical profiling methods, this book reveals the patterns of behaviour in each case and enables the reader to understand some of the thinking behind crimes including Ted Bundy's 1970s killing spree, the 2004 Madrid train bombings, and Frank “Catch Me If You Can” Abagnale's $2.5 million cheque frauds throughout the 1960s. Each case is examined over six pages, with precise timelines and photographs.
