		Farrell proves that by allowing a familiar, out-of-body, female entity to enter his life, only to become a victim at the mercy of a demonic fiend, which made his life a living nightmare!
		Farrell's books at the age of 18 I responded with righteous indignation, "just a man making excuses" for his behavior and discarded the book.
