Promises to a Monster - E-book - ePub

Book Synopsis: The novel revolves around GUOC; a legally confidential service, for criminals, who (no matter what the crime) may wish to try and give up crime. The story line follows two crime Advisers/Negotiators; Sandra and Andy (who add a touch of romance to the escalating drama), as they doggedly (do-goodilly?) try to deal with their respective clients, including; George, a wannabe rapist sex offender, Trish-trash-Trisha, a drug addicted prostitute and .
Steven. Steven is already a full-blown serial killer, who has dedicated himself to totally humiliating GUOC; by getting them to break their precious, legally protected, code of confidentiality. In a fit of vanity, "It is my most loyal trait in this disloyal life!" Steven threatens; to trace, track and kill Sandra's co-workers . unless or until . Sandra (or somebody at GUOC) breaks the confidentiality code; by passing on his permanently open and carried 24/7 mobile phone number, to the pursuing police - thus allowing them to trace and GPS track his whereabouts.
The relationships between the crime Advisers and their clients, along with the questioning about any, so called, rewards from any intended crime/s, also poses two potentially controversial questions to the reader and society i.e. what kind of society would want a legally confidential, crime-advice line for its potential criminals (as well as for their concerned family, friends and neighbours etc.), and what kind society would not want such a service?
