【本書特色】She’s back―the Queen of True Crime！犯罪探索者 Ruby 最新力作！★台灣犯罪心理學普及與犯罪紀實寫作的重要推手★深耕離奇闇黑案件多年，以其獨到見解與精闢分析聞名★開創台灣結合犯罪紀實、心理分析與社會反思的趨勢★首作《上帝的黑名單》狂銷十七萬冊，挑戰讀者心理極限《上帝的黑名單 II：饕餮》延續前作《上帝的黑名單》對「連續殺人犯」的研究，以及深刻反思「連續殺人犯」的出現之社會、心理現象。不過，本書的焦點更進一步集中在最極端、最具禁忌性的犯罪現象：「食人殺手」。作者以新聞調查與犯罪心理學為基礎，將「食人」視為理解人性崩壞的一面鏡子。她從真實案件出發，並結合精神醫學、社會學與神話文化，企圖回答一個根本的問題：「為什麼人會吃人？」作者廣泛閱讀資料、訪談精神科與法醫心理學專家，發現食人現象的成因複雜，可能的原因涉及極廣，包括了：精神疾病、童年創傷、藥物濫用與社會孤立等。本書不是恐怖小說，而是一封「邀請思考人性」的信。作者文字雖冷峻，但帶有溫度與警醒，提醒人們「脆弱與失控，只差一條線」。希望讀者在驚駭之餘，也能對人性、社會冷漠與心理困境產生理解與同理。犯罪解析名家帶你直視深淵，深入剖析美國、德國、俄羅斯食人魔內心世界！《上帝的黑名單2：饕餮》的出版，不是為了揭開社會黑暗的面紗，而是帶領讀者穿越驚駭，走向理解。社會上總有一些事件讓人難以置信，那些冷酷的行為背後，是否也藏著沒被看見的哀傷與扭曲的歷程？這不是一份冷冰冰的案件彙整，而是一次對生命邊界與社會責任的深刻提問。因此――不論你在社會哪個角落，都值得被理解與好好對待。本書以「食人」為核心議題，從文化、歷史、統計到個案與心理學分析，橫跨美國、德國、俄羅斯等食人案例，試圖理解「為何會出現吃人的人」――既不是為了刺激，也不是單純的犯罪報導，而是想把社會、童年創傷、精神病理與制度失靈連成一條理解線。書籍架構：第一章｜美國連環殺手的數據用統計與社會分析回答「為什麼美國出現較多此類個案」，並討論人口基數、城市／鄉村差異、槍枝可得性、童年創傷與心理醫療不均等因素如何交織，形成高發生率環境。第二章｜美國食人案件以個案呈現美國病態食人的不同面貌與動機。本章強調，當「連續性」和「食人」同時出現時，這不再是單一暴力事件，而是一種重複的、需要深入剖析的模式。第三章｜德國食人歷史與案件將個案置於歷史脈絡中討論
