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. His wife has been pushed to her limit trying to understand what is wrong with her husband. This story is based on some truth about personality disorders, personal experience, attempted suicide and dysfunctional demons living within Jackson Stafford. Ben, Carl, Denny, Darrell, Johnny, and Randy, the "others," share the same body, but each has a different life. Things are out of control. Having decided that there wasn't any hope for him, Jackson Stafford opted to try to end his life, attempted an overdose that prompted his wife to call the Military police to come to the house to rescue him from himself. Even though the attempt was unsuccessful, it brought to the forefront the personalities living within the host. Jackson, only aware of one at first, Ben, was made aware that there was another personality named Carl. Carl is diabolical and evil. He committed a murder many years earlier when he was allowed out by using the Energy Square created by the host when he was a child to allow Ben to come out to play with him. The Square is the center force in the 'Inner-room' within Jackson Stafford's mind. The Square transports the personalities out into the real world where they possess the physical body of the host. Once the Military is advised that Jackson has attempted suicide, he is brought into the base where he is sent to a mental hospital for evaluation. When he is at the hospital, Ben, the protector of the host, talks to Jackson to calm him and help him through the analysis at the mental ward. Having determined that Jackson is not completely crazy, he is assigned to a transactional analysis psychiatric who attempts to guide Jackson and his wife, Mary through the maze within the mind of Jackson Stafford. While undergoing the year-long treatment, the doctor discovers all of the personalities living within Jackson. As each one tells the murder story, they are revealed to Jackson's wife.
