This book is about a criminal talent—about those criminals who possess extraordinary, outstanding, and sometimes unique qualities. Some of the heroes of this book are born actors. Someone is a master at making others trust them. Someone can cynically and firmly zombify young people, forcing them to carry out their dark will. And someone—by the level of their knowledge—is a scientist, a researcher, an excellent practitioner, but whose activity brought people suffering and grief. This book is a warning. First of all, it should be read by trusting, overly impressionable people—and by everyone who doesn’t want to end up caught in the nets of talented schemers.
