Synopsis

Dr. Ludlow Fein, Psychoanalyst is suddenly faced with a madman targeting his family and his patients. Threats leveled at his wife Clare, strange messages left in his waiting room, meaningless night calls, and the murder of some of his patients propels him toward the realization that he will finally have to confront death We are able to see into the minds of both the madman; what he thinks, his battle with evil voices driving him to murder, and the conflicts of the analyst as he confronts his patients, and his uncivilized rage at the threat to his life. Steve Fein, his Brother, is a New York City Homicide Detective assigned to the search for a serial killer targeting young women who are found clutching a Queen Chess piece, and papers with a puzzling code. The nature of the murders leads Steve to consult his brother as an expert on pathology, and they find that the messages left with the dead women resemble one found in Ludlow's waiting room, and point to the Queen Sacrifice, a desperate move in chess. It is not clear what this means to the madman, Simon Sawyer, but it awakens in Ludlow a memory of how he had failed a young boy many years ago. The tension builds as the madman's calls increase. He becomes more brazen in his attacks, and Ludlow is nearly killed while following a suspect. The conflict finally leads to a deadly meeting between the madman, and the Psychoanalyst.

Biographie de l'auteur

I am a Psychoanalyst, co-founder of one of the largest treatment and training institutes in New York City, who shares his time between my practice, and my curiosity about how things work, and how to fix them. An early interest in Physics, led me to minor in this subject, while also majoring in Psychology, and led to the peculiar experience of being caught between the exact nature of the Physical Sciences, and the more general, un-mathematical nature of human relations. This division of interests between the exact and the human side of things is what has led to my writing this novel IN A MIND'S EYE. The complexities of the human mind rival the complexity of the world of quantum physics, in its unpredictability, and sudden shifts in focus. The privilege of observing, and being a part of this makes life exciting, and full of the surprises, which enliven existence. IN A MIND'S EYE takes us on a trip inside the world of madness where things are not simple, accompanied by the complexity of the mind of the Psychoanalyst, also shifting in nature, and at times disconnected from his role as a respected professional. He at times flirts with death, in pursuit of the madman, and at times is beset with guilt about his enemy. Ludlow Fein is neither pure in thought and action, as is his threat, Simon Sawyer who fights the voices inside his head, and his rage at the memory of a betrayal many years ago.
