Book Summary: Jackson is setting in a hospital treatment room. His life is hopeless memories and whispers full of shadows, until death comes to visit. This story is based on some truth about personality disorders, suicide and dysfunctional demons. Ben, Carl, Denny, Darrell, Johnny, and Randy, the "others," share the same body, but each has a different life. Things are out of control. Dr. Alfred Fine "Jake" tries to help Jackson come to terms with his friends. A traumatic climax ensues with the introduction of Januari Winters.

She watched the people milling in and out of the office area, those with impersonal glances, uncaring, but pretending to care. She had been waiting for about twenty minutes and her patience's had all but been exhausted. "Excuse me. I was supposed to see Dr. Fine, a Dr. Alfred Fine. Can you tell me if he's here or will I have to stand here all night waiting?" she asked as she exhaled and shifted her attention down the hall to the small room where Jackson had been escorted by the military police earlier that evening. He was placed there under guard awaiting consultation. Mary glanced down a pastel-colored corridor that now was mired with fingerprints from children wishing to find something to do or perhaps leaving
