About the Book

My story deals with a Psychotic Paranoid Schizophrenic with a rating of ten, the highest on the scale and the most severe and violent of all. Much of this story is based on real people, events and places. Dates, names and locations may have been changed. It is an extremely violent, and explicitly sexual novel. But real life in this world is violent and sexual. How environment, heredity, chemical imbalance, family influences, love, hate and relationships may at times affect the mental state of a mind that is already hanging on the edge.
