JUNG'S DEMON
"If you betray me, I'll die," his unborn daughter warns the killer. But, can she save his soul?

"Absolutely riveting psychological thriller about a serial killer from the killer's point of view," a haunting story of self-discovery gone amok. "Killing them was my language; killing you was my last message to you," writes Roman L. in a letter to Charlotte, his infernal lover, written after he had murdered her. As he seeks redemption and forgiveness, Roman discovers a chilling truth of the madness within and the mayhem it had caused without.
The murders he had committed with such a ferocious, savage intensity would send shivers down your spine every time you'd reflect on his brutally honest confessions. He writes about "sinking into the terrifying Hell of my own soul, a cold, utter darkness of the scariest, most painful insanity that peels off your skin while your brain screams, crushed by madness."
"Jung's Demon" is a chilling, intricately twisted book; it is as hallucinogenic as Hunter S. Thompson and as powerful as Oscar Zeta Acosta. It is as tragic as Malcolm Lowry and as funny as David Foster Wallace. Moreover, think Franz Kafka on acid and sprinkle some humor over it; that's also "Jung's Demon."

The readers are raving:

  • ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "The most enjoyable novel I've read in years, since I'd read Bulgakov's "Master and Margarita." (Amazon US review)
  • ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Suspenseful, exquisitely paced, and darkly funny" (Amazon DE review)
  • ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "To paraphrase Kundera, it's an unbearable intimacy of madness." (Amazon US review)
  • ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Absolutely fantastic read about a serial killer from the killer's point of view." (NetGalley review)
  • ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Truly an unforgettable book, transgressing genres, borders and boundaries alike." (Amazon US review)
  • ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "A gripping, trenchant tale." (Amazon US review)
  • ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "A must for lovers of food and travel, relationship addicts, movie lovers, students of the human condition (psychologists, also), artists of all kinds, magical realists, and other hopeless romantics." (Goodreads review)
  • ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Is the demon really in all of us, waiting for right circumstances to unleash its devastating power?" (Amazon CA review)
  • ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Jung's Demon is a fantastic unique book. It is well written and has great characters. Some parts are disturbing and creepy." (NetGalley review)

Editor's Note:
"Even now as I copy his words here, I shake as I furtively look around. And I am afraid. I dread, no matter how irrationally, that I somehow might meet him or one of his scary personalities anew, and, like I was once before in Paris, again be tricked into liking him by his disarming, almost child-like smile and by his mirthful laughter that hid both the frightened child in him and the terrifying, heartless monster sneering behind.
This book contains his chronicles. His harrowing descent into Hell."
