About This Book

Jonathan and his cousin Dickie, teenagers ensconced in the throes of puberty, trap an escaped psycho from a mental institution in a dark fruit cellar on an abandoned farm. Willie is infected with tics and lice, surviving on the garbage from Dickie's home on Lake Syracuse. While being taken away from the abandoned farm, his arm comes loose from the straight jacket. He grabs young Jonathan and yells, "Everyone I love, burned... dead... You should have left me be." Twenty years later, after the death of Jonathan's pregnant wife, he accepts a position as Clinical Director at the Marilyn State Mental Institution, in Indiana, a beautiful Insane Asylum.
