In my book I delve into the relationship between mother and son, and examine the process by which a child develops into a sociopath. This work is distinguished from others in its genre in the way that I have employed first person narratives of the main characters from unique perspectives.
In short, the novel is as follows: the first chapter is about six year old Alan, one of the two main characters. Alan is a troubled child, to say the least, and has a “fascination” with animals. Through graphic descriptions of Alan’s behavior, the first chapter hook’s the reader who then develops an understanding, and even some affection for Alan. The subsequent chapters center on Jenny, Alan’s mother and how her life events have in turn affected Alan. Finally, we are brought to the present, which focuses on Alan and the sociopathic beliefs that he uses to justify his murder of women.
