AN EXPLANATIONI am not a gossip but I enjoy telling tales. And this is the important part; as strange as it seems, I am a book.Some of my stories are perhaps funny, others sometimes sad. Most of all they are to meant to provoke your thoughts and emotions as they reflect what I have gathered from the previous consumers of my observations in my other books.We all like to know the distasteful secrets of others but it can be difficult to get them at first hand. Yet, something seemingly detached and innocent can be the receptacle and the exposer of those hidden truths about lies. Most of us will know that with other people we hear the stories they want to share but not the ones they want to forget.I do not know your story, but for others their tales are an open book for all to see. There are stories about criminals, cheats and lovers, and one about a man who tricked his way into a care home, fell in love and got thrown out.AND THERE ARE STORIES ABOUT HOW I KILLED PEOPLE.

IF YOU, OR SOMEBODY YOU KNOW, HAS BEEN HURT BY A NARCISSIST, THEN THESE STORIES WILL MAKE YOU FEEL SO MUCH BETTER.The mirror is the narcissist's best friend because it reflects them. If it breaks, they are beaten. This is a set of short stories and metaphors about escaping from the narcissistic emotional and physical traps and clutches.Sometimes serious and at others light hearted, they tell how narcissists got their just deserts. They, of course, will hate the stories but anybody who has been the victim of those predators, male or female, will enjoy reading about how the cravers of admiration and the abusers of power met their true destiny.The author worked for many years as a therapist. He found that metaphors gave insights into the difficulties of people and showed the ways in which his clients could escape or improve. If the stories strike a chord, then they also show a way out.Metaphors open shutters in the mind that have somehow become closed. They have been used to help us from childhood with fables, folk tales and other stories that tell of dangers without lecturing in rational words. Images are developed that have impact and stay in minds as permanent as lighthouses that protect sailors.These tales have been written to cast a light onto the dark shadows in people's lives. Narcissism hurts the victims who are expected to feed positive admiration back to the egotistical perpetrators of physical and emotional pain. Remember, they are NOT after you for you. They want you for themselves.

A BOOK THAT DELIVERS SURPRISE AFTER SURPRISE AS THE READER FOLLOWS A STORY OF BLOODY, BRUTAL AND EXCRUCIATING REVENGE.Two men, both with dark histories, meet in strange circumstances and combine their very different talents.One is a shaman, Jack, who can make magic and the other is Jacob, a hypnotherapist who has used his powers of persuasion to satisfy his sexual needs and, ironically, to revenge his clients who have been themselves abused.The shaman invents an old myth about how the crusading knights were punished by having their privates removed and pushed into their mouths as a warning to others who raped and stole on their journey.The hypnotherapist meets the shaman in a mysterious way and together they tackle the corrupt elite in business, politics, the law and the church. Added to this, Jacob meets a beautiful woman who is victimised by a crooked police chief who needs to be removed from the planet.However, in seeking justice in such a gory way, they damaged the whole fabric of civilised life. If only they had developed a way to protect people and create a better life for all, instead. If only that happened.WARNING. Not for the faint hearted, there are scenes of brutal deaths and strong sexual acts.
