Consenting Victims

About the Book

A dysfunction family's tragic circumstance, crisis, estrangement, abandonment, alienation, coping, addictions, abusive relationships, enabling escapes, bittersweet rendezvousing, life-saving intervention, harmful allegations, and pursuit of reconciliation are at the heart of this dramatic story inspired by an anonymous victim. Within each human being is the instinctive will and courage to live regardless of condition and sacrifice. To survive self destruction, a victim, real or imagined, might choose to decisively accuse another person or persons of his or her calamitous behavior and plight. When doing so, the egocentric victim cunningly attempts to victimize the second party without personal consequence or remorse. Furthermore, to survive, the real or imagined victim might also decide to falsely accuse an innocent second party; actually believing that alleged person or persons committed the disastrous behavior for which the accuser and or a third party are responsible. Thus simmers the crux of Consenting Victims.
