I'm Hannah. I'm Suryte.

And welcome to Redhanded where we feel fully back in the swing of things, I think.

There was a moment where I personally wasn't sure if I was ever going to pull it back, but we're here.

And today is the day that we're going to tell you what the not so secret but also very secret project is, was will be.

And if you can judge by the incredibly smug way, I said, I'm Suryte.

We're so fucking proud and excited and happy and joyous and every other positive adjective that there is out there.

Guys, we wrote a book.

Yeah, we wrote an actual book.

We did a whole book. It's like a legit book.

It's a legit book. Whenever I like go back over it, I'm like, oh yeah, this is a book.

That's some good shit right there. Read that.

That's some good shit.

People who I've told about it who are like, I know they're like, what's it about?

I'm like, well, it's about.

What isn't it about? Well, what isn't it about? It's about.

What makes a killer tick?

We prayed around for a long time about the kind of whole nature versus nurture, but inevitably the answer is always that it's just both.

So we were kind of like, okay, let's just focus on the fact that too often people are trying to otherwise kill us and say that they're monsters.

If you listen to the show obviously, you know that's not how we talk about killers because it's quite reductive and pointless.

So what we wanted to do was kind of pick all the very human things that lead a person down a very murdery path to murder.

Is that a good summation of the book, kind of?
