The stakes were high. His body count was higher.The ladies loved me. Both the ones I shoved out my hotel room door every morning and the ones I was currently flicking between my thumbs. A pair of queens. My ideal threesome.But these gals were fickle, whereas Lady Luck was the type to never leave my side. It was the same reason the girl sitting across from me never stood a chance.Couldn't blame her. Not really. Pretty little thing didn't know she was treading in shark-infested waters. Or that the only card she had left at her disposal... just so happened to be my favorite one to take. Taking wasn't the only thing I did though. I was a giver too. Demands, degradation, dic-Well, I think you catch my drift.

Even serial killers have a type. Unfortunately, tonight, that type is you. You can feel it, can't you? The way I've been watching you night after night. Patiently waiting for you to turn around and give me a glimpse of those eyes. Don't be shy. I know you want this as much as I do. Atta girl. Look at you You're perfect. Just f*cking perfect. Like I knew you would be. The more that I think about it, you could be her twin. You know what that means, right? You're the one. At the very least, the next one. Maybe the last one if you don't f*ck this up like all the others. We can figure that out later, though. When I move on from watching to doing. Because you might not see me, sweetheart. But I'll be seeing you. Real soon.

Sybil, or The Two Nations is one of the finest novels to depict the social problems of class-ridden Victorian England. The book's publication in 1845 created a sensation, for its immediacy and readability brought the plight of the working classes sharply to the attention of the reading public. The 'two nations' of the alternative title are the rich and poor, so disparate in their opportunities and living conditions, and so hostile to each other. that they seem almost to belong to different countries. The gulf between them is given a poignant focus by the central romantic plot concerning the love of Charles Egremont, a member of the landlord class, for Sybil, the poor daughter of a militant Chartist leader.
A controversial cult classic, Sybil by Flora Rheta Schreiber is the extraordinary story of a woman who suffered from multiple personality disorder.'How are you today?' the doctor asked. 'I'm fine', was the reply. 'But Sybil isn't. She was so sick she couldn't come. So I came instead.'A collaboration between journalist Flora Rheta Schreiber and Sybil's psychiatrist, Dr. Cornelia Wilbur, Sybil is the story of a woman with sixteen separate personalities, and was instrumental in influencing the definition and diagnosis of multiple personality disorder. Sybil's diagnosis has since been called into question - but, forty years after it was first published, her story remains a gripping and disturbing account of one woman's struggle for mental stability and happiness.
In this "spellbinding" bestseller that inspired the electrifying Emmy-award winning TV movie starring Sally Fields, a journalist chronicles the first ever case of multiple personalities to be psychoanalyzed (Time Magazine). You're about to meet Sybil-and the sixteen selves to whom she played host, both women and men, each with a different personality, speech pattern, and personal appearance. You'll experience the strangeness and fascination of one woman's rare affliction, and travel with her on her long, ultimately triumphant journey back to wholeness. More amazing than any work of fiction, Sybil is one woman's story of survival you won't soon forget.
