Description
Domestic homicide is a pervasive issue that has been overlooked for too long. Professor Jane Monckton Smith has spent thirty years working to change this, using her expertise as a former police officer and internationally renowned professor of public protection.
Her groundbreaking research has led to the creation of the eight-stage homicide timeline, which reveals the identifiable stages in which coercive relationships can escalate to murder. This book shares a glimpse into a world of toxic masculinity and coercive control, where shame and fear are used as tools to manipulate and control.
Monckton Smith draws on disciplines including psychology, sociology, and law to explore how coercive relationships can end in murder, and sheds light on the reasons why many of us feel unsafe in our own homes.
