Hi, if anyone out there understand profiling killers from looking at crime scenes, I would really appreciate your help.
In my book, the serial killer is a sociopathic murderer, who kills women. The main reason for his crimes is control, as his mother was an alcoholic, who left him with his father, who sent him to boarding school after his mother died. Anyway, his mother would visit him on Wednesdays for a couple of weeks, before disappearing for moths at a time, before returning. Anyway, each visit his mother gave him coincides with a murder, until her death (also on a wednesday). He returns to where he was born and murders women every Wednesday, until the day of his mother's death. On that day he plans something spectacular, but I can't tell you anymore because it would spoil the ending.
He stalks people, sends them flowers, cold-calls them, then shoots them in the back on midday on Wednesday. He also writes the word 'Evil' on each of the victims back (referring to them being evil) with their own lipstick. He hits them on the head then shoots them, which to me suggests he needs to control them, but I'm not a professional so I can't be sure.
Anyway, he switches cities every four murders and he writes his name on the walls. But, no-one has been at all the cities at all the times so he's using multiple identities. Also, in each city the victims are all connected to each other (but not to victims in other cities), through an identifying feature (age, hair colour, eye colour, height, weight, etc).
He also kills for fame, as he wants to be remembered after he's dead. The killer taunts them and he does seem as though he's playing a dangerous game (ringing one of the detectives up and repeating his name isn't smart, but a great way to get attention and dig under their skin).
Anyway, what I'm asking is, does this sound like a controlling, killer, who also kills for fame and has issues with woman after his mother? Or am I totally of track and will I have to redo things?
Really appreciate a reply. Sorry I wrote so much, I just felt I had to get the killer accross.
