Book Overview

Psychiatrist Jack Rackham has spent years helping others cope with their emotional pain while struggling to bury his own trauma: the suicide of his twin brother. When a patient hangs himself, Jack’s control begins to break dragging him deeper into a guilt that he still tries to ignore.

As Jack persists in denying his ... inner turmoil, his marriage teeters on the edge when his wife, Bonny, gives him an ultimatum: confront his demons or leave. Jack lacks help from any of his colleagues who are dealing with their emotional burdens. A psychoanalyst drowns in marital misery, a devout Evangelist psychiatrist hides her unspeakable secrets, a dangerously charming sociopath risks arrest and a rogue social worker introduces her patients to talking with the dead.

Struggling between his guilt, disillusionment, and a glimmer of self-awareness, Jack finally faces Bonny and confesses his deepest fear: that he may never measure up to be the perfect person he should be. In a raw and tender moment, they make a tentative peace. But as Jack watches her drive away, he is left alone to begin the difficult journey toward acceptance and change... if he can.

The Looney Bin is a darkly humorous, unflinching exploration of personal demons, professional chaos, and the rocky road to self-acceptance—where every breakthrough comes at a price.
Fans of Jodi Picoult and Lisa Genova will be captivated by this emotional and thought-provoking novel. read more

BIOGRAPHY
As a psychiatrist who's practiced in Connecticut, Florida and also a spot of time in Queensland, Australia, I often worked with people with relationship problems. This led to my non-fiction book, Say Goodbye to your PDI (Personality Disordered Individual) Recognize People Who Make You Miserable and Eliminate Them fro... m Your Life for Good!. written to help people deal with manipulating and controlling individuals, put their guilt behind them and be happy.

My novel, The Looney Bin, tells of quirky mental health professionals dealing with their own emotional baggage and how they either face it or keep fooling themselves to keep that perfect self-image. Rich in crisp dialog, The Looney Bin dives deeply into the hearts and souls of these characters and lays bare their inner secrets, fears, passions and self-deceit.

Now thriving in sunny, southwest Florida, I’m hoping that The Looney Bin tells an engaging story which is also thought provoking for the reader.. read more
