Synopsis

A Psychological Intrigue Set in Alpine New Zealand. Simon, a convicted serial killer of the rich, undergoes treatment at a fledgling private criminal rehabilitation firm, IVRRAC. Simon is then sent to the alpine village of Trentsworth, a town full of rich socialite women. There IVRRAC can ascertain whether Simon is cured of his murderous impulses or not. During his stay in Trentsworth, Simon falls in love with his neighbour, Kyndrea, the only child of a rich widower. After a time he realises there is no way she would be able to love him due to his past. Through this anguish he discovers that the rehabilitation process has failed and he is still able to act out his revenge with dramatic and unexpected results. During the aftermath of his actions he is informed what the anagram IVRRAC stands for and the awful truth that IVRRAC has its own dark secrets and Trentsworth is not at all what it seems. "One mistake, one tiny error in that psych report, the treatment won't hold and that will spell disaster. Suicide, massacre or most likely both! I'll stay with him and watch events carefully, but I won't be held responsible." Andrew (Liaison Officer, IVRRAC).

About this title

From the Inside Flap

"A murderer?" Asked the dark haired one, "You think we can handle a serial killer?"
"I'm sure you can handle a serial killer, Andrew," was her reply.
"We cannot afford any mistakes, Christine,"
"You're right, Andrew, we cannot. But I've had a look at the psych assessment the judge ordered. If he's insane, then anyone who believes in any cause, from religion to saving the whales are insane. It's just that, unlike them, his beliefs are screwed. That's what IVRRAC is designed to fix, isn't it?"
"Screwed is putting it mildly." Andrew looked directly at Christine's eyes, "Murder is a lot different from thieving. You can't give back life. There's a big chance this guy is going to come out worse than he came in, but I warn you." Andrew got up to leave, just as he got to the door he turned around. "One mistake, one tiny error in that psych report,
the treatment won't hold and that will spell disaster; suicide or massacre, or most likely both! I'll stay with him and watch events carefully, but I won't be held responsible."
