About this listen
A husband. A father. A killer.
Chris Watts was a family man. Everybody, including his family, believed that. Yet, on August 13, 2018, he murdered Shanann, his pregnant wife, and two young daughters.
As terrible as his story is, it is also a warning because to this day, living behind bars, Watts is still acting out the character traits that made him kill in the first place.
In this, the first and only psychological exploration of the Watts family murders, psychotherapist Lena Derhally has pieced together the crime, the events leading to it, and most of all, her beliefs about the "why". She explores the childhoods, families of origin, meeting, and early relationship of Shanann and Chris Watts. She also examines Watts's double life and duplicity regarding his well-publicized affair with a coworker.
The audiobook includes an in-depth look at community psychopaths, the different subtypes of narcissism, how to prevent this type of violence, and interviews with a neuroscientist, a criminal psychologist, and a journalist. Using her knowledge of attachment theory, Imago relationship theory, and psychopathology, Derhally draws a profile of the real Chris Watts and - just as important - she warns listeners that he is still a danger today.
©2019 Lena M. Derhally (P)2020 TantorI bought this book to get a more rounded understanding of the The Watts, and events leading up to the murders.
Now the book does deliver this, plus the fact I couldn’t stop listening. However, what is most irritating is the female narrator’s voice. She feels the need to change her voice tone an octave lower when reading the words of the men within the text. Ridiculous to say the least. Spoils it really.
An truly sad and unbelievable listen. Narrator spoils it.
