About the Book

It sheds light onto a character trying to cope with his daily struggle of having a mental illness. When the stress levels increase, he then loses control over his own mind and body. This leaves Adrian in situations that have him at the mercy of the illness and free from morality and remorse.

Normal life is disrupted to a point of disaster and mistrust. Adrian tries desperately not to lose touch with the things that mean the most to him.

The only method that has saved Adrian up to this point was his alcohol consumption. He could temporarily ease the suffering and pain that he feels in his heart, and leave his troubles behind.

Adrian finds himself living in a life that goes against his own morality. He must then adapt to his new ways. Threats of danger are upon him and his loved ones. He must dig deep inside and summon the darkness to aid him to defeat his enemies.

This impulse takes control of Adrian and keeps him safe from losing his own mind. This is Adrian’s world now. Only he has the key to enter this secret place.
