About This Book
Set in New York City in 1963-64. The Greenwich Village Scene, Lower East Side and the New York World's Fair are the featured locales.
Schizophrenia causes anguished voices to gnaw through your subconscious like termites decaying your psyche. You have nowhere to turn as the commanding voices conjure up a necessity to murder. Such is the case with the reverend Thomas Barragan-Deavers who hears the voice of his inner God. The voice directs him to use the power of his office as a pastor, along with his gift as a hypnotist, to absorb the souls of his fragile victims. It is the only thing Thomas can do to nourish his own conflicted soul. Only then can he feel accepted by his overpowering inner god. Only then can he satisfy his own desire to nourish the woman he has striven to be since his childhood. Thomas regards his alter-ego, Chamelea, not as a murderer, but as a liberator of souls.
