Status Updates From Sleep with the Devil

My first Day Keene, and it is excellent. I was expecting a corny ending, and was happily disappointed…

Maybe a bit slow at times - or perhaps I'm just an impatient junkie of fast pacing - but we have us another sociopath. After reading in the newspaper that the police have arrested someone else for a murder he committed: "Ferron's laughter continued to mount. he beat the bed with his fists. He laughed until he was weak, until tears rolled down his cheeks. He'd never read anything so funny. He'd never been so amused."

And when her father, sprinkling his conversation liberally with thees and thous had asked him what he did for a living, what could he tell the man? That he was a part-time male model who posed for the lurid pictures in true crime magazines; that he was a bit radio actor and small time gigolo; that he broke arms and legs, and backs if necessary, to keep a nasty little loan shark’s creditors in line? Of course not.

somehow boring, but the story will take you down
