Silhouette of Virtue

"Masterfully written. Sinister and sympathetic characters come alive in this thrilling, can't-miss novel that kept me in suspense through the last sentence.” — Larry Gossett, Seattle politician and former Black Power Movement activist.

Dr. Jay Richards is a forensic psychologist and expert witness with over thirty years of experience in diagnosing, managing, and studying psychopaths, sex offenders, and mentally disordered offenders. His fiction explores how people (normal and disordered alike) make choices in a world that is simultaneously predetermined and stultifying—unpredictable and dangerous. He believes that task of fiction is to create and share a vision of the world that is worthy of humanity.Author's Home: Seattle, Washington Other Books By Author: Richards, H. J. (1998).
