Vicious Impulses

By Walter F. Williams

Overview

It's the 1950s and the naked body of a young girl, lying face up, partially covered by brush, is discovered in the woods. Is this the beginning of a murder investigation into the young man who presented himself as a good student and dependable worker--someone who was well-liked by adults? The author delves into the life of Carl Klick, his early crimes, and the façade he presented to those who knew him. Will his psychotic tendencies and vicious impulses lead him to murder again?

Vicious Impulses explores the life of a young man starting in the early 1950s, who even as a young boy, displayed criminal tendencies by committing a variety of crimes, for which he escaped prosecution.

He maintained a convincing façade of leading an exemplary life, but for how long could he fool those around him? Would he be able to control his psychotic and vicious tendencies?
