The Wicked Heart by Christopher Pike

HE DOES NOT WANT TO KILL

Dusty Shame is a high school senior, and a serial killer. 
Already he has murdered three women, and he has more planned.

Yet Dusty does not want to hurt anybody.
There is something inside him, or perhaps outside him, that compels him to kill.

Sheila Hardolt has lost her best friend to Dusty's insane attacks. It will be her task to probe the clues that will point her into the past - to a time when a large portion of mankind has lost all sense of decency.

There she will find the seed of Dusty's evil compulsion, the Wicked Heart, and the reason why it did not die the first time it was destroyed.
