About The Headf**kers

Four psychopaths, three mental conditions, two lovers fighting, and a riot in every city, The Headf**kers is an unusual, quirky horror story about manipulation. It highlights the similarities and differences between psychopaths, certain insufferable mental conditions, and the paranormal through well-developed characters. Described as an intelligent comedy for the mentally ill by some while others found it horrifying, but all paled at the bizarre plot, frighteningly possible when coupled with the knowledge that the rate of psychopathy is higher than that of bowel cancer: All found the 400+ pages gripping and entertaining.The extreme psychopathic personality has been glorified in the past, randomly selecting victims for their bizarre fantasies. While some are depicted here, the successful psychopaths are also highlighted, most of whom run countries and large corporations such as insurance companies and law enforcement. Still others with limited opportunity seek to detroy the lives of those around them, but never cross the boundary of illegality.David Egan is a textbook psychopath fixated on destroying his government and uses his idea of fair play to justify his behaviour. David acts with intelligence: he chooses to use court appointed psychiatric sessions as educational tools to become a better criminal. He is selfish and knows how to persuade people.Belle and Joe have been friends since high school. They attended the same primary school as David. The world stops to watch the television coverage of their school principal announcing on a video recording about his terror campaign and intentions to continue bombing American schools each week until his demands are met.Detective Rick Mendrin never recovered from his 'Head Hunter' case where someone was stealing women's heads and raping them. Whenthe 'School bomber' started in Rick's jurisdiction, he avoided the heart of the case by focusing on a fantasy love interest. Little did he know that brilliant psychiatrist, Esther Morgan has lived the life of a sloth for the past few years, only coming out of seclusion to help stop charcoal children.Jamahl is a psychic healer with schizophrenia. He was revered in his profession until his mental illness was exposed. When he predicts destruction and draws profiles of two deadly assailants, he is disregarded as having delusions. When he claims that the government won't allow him to teach telepathy in schools because it will expose the corrupt, he is ignored as being paranoid. He is unselfish, yet he discourages people.'The Headf**kers' can be read many times and appreciated as a new depth or another dimension is realised. It's guaranteed entertainment.
