Mind Games EPUB

Award-winner William Deverell proves that when you mess with a psychiatrists mind, anything can happen

Psychiatrist Dr. Tim Dares life is falling apart: his wife has just left him, hes being hauled before a disciplinary committee, and now someones threatening to kill him

In his gripping new novel, Mind Games, William Deverell returns to the intriguing territory of the law and lawyers and of human psychology and motivation, and he does so in familiar Deverell surroundings: the streets, courtrooms, and waters of Vancouver.

Dr. Tim Dare is a forensic psychiatrist whose life is in a mess: his wife has just left him to find herself; his mother is being sued for libel by a small-town mayor over a mystery novel; hes been made the monitor of a man just out of psychiatric hospital, a man he considers a psychopathic murderer; hes being hauled before a disciplinary committee for misplacing a file; one of his patients is transferring feelings to him rather too romantically; and now someones threatening to kill him. He cant even get into an elevator without falling apart. No wonder he thinks he needs to see a shrink himself. Under the guidance of fellow psychiatrist Dr. Allison Epstein, Dare gradually learns how to face the demons within and those in the real world that are really out to get him.
