Flesh — Melissa Glisan

What do you see when you look into the mirror of your own self loathing? For years Phaedra Borruso suffered night terrors, horrible fantasies of personal destruction that left her bleeding -- awake and asleep -- until she arrived at October's Promise.

Dr. Allan Ryder opened his clinic, based his practice in clinical psychology, around an unrequited love. In healing Phaedra, he hoped to have exorcised that ghost only to have it resurrected years later when Phaedra, now an adult, returns more haunted than ever.

Can he see past the textbook treatments to what lies beyond the unconscious mind in time to save the young woman he really loves?
