Riveting

There's only two ways a reader can read this one and it not affect his or her mind or life, either with the lights on or during the daytime. It's that intense and riveting. There is a danger along the San Diego coast, where a slasher, rapist is targeting young lonely single women. After one of Dr. Cory Cohen's patients is killed, Cory decides to get involved, but the police do not want her help, needless to say that does not stop Cory. She bands together a group of psychologists in hopes of finding out how many of their patients are receiving calls from the rapist, they also attempt to come up with a pattern. Cory decides to go even further by putting herself in harms way to get this maniac. I call him a maniac because the rapist they are dealing with is a brutal, unemotional psychopath like no other I have ever read. The author does an excellent job of literally putting the reader into the mind of the killer. I promise as you read Prescription for Terror, you too will wonder with a feeling of fear could there really be such an evil creature as this running around our streets. This psychological thriller is one of the best that I have read. It was fast paced -- a real page-turner. I can hardly wait for the sequel.

A taut thriller

A first-rate thiller that I found thoughly enjoyable, both for its suspense and social conscience. A must read; I look forward to her next book.

A gripping page-turner!

Psychologist Sandra Levy Ceren has created strong portraits of both the ruthless psychopathic rapist who preys on the vulnerable young therapy patients of San Diego -- as well as the engaging and enigmatic therapist who takes him on, despite the haunting demons in her own past. The danger that Presciption for Terror exposes in the managed care system is absolutely chilling. Just try to put it down!

A gripping, informative, accurate novel

Author Sandra Ceren draws upon her thirty years of clinical work with crime victims to bring a degree of realism and accuracy that is rarely matched and never surpassed.
