About this ebook
“A remarkable and very powerful” account by a stalking victim “conveys her own fear and mounting sense of physical discomfort so well that we feel it, too” (Booklist, starred review).
What if the man you loved transformed into a ruthless and relentless tormentor, threatening your sanity and your safety?
This is not a fictional scenario. It is Kate Brennan’s life.
A well-respected writer and scholar, Kate was wary of getting involved when she met Paul, a wealthy, charismatic businessman, but his charm and determination eventually won her over. Once they moved in together, however, Kate discovered the sordid secrets lurking beneath the Mr. Right facade: the serial infidelities, the unbalanced psyche. When she ended their relationship, Paul dedicated himself to stalking her—using his limitless resources to track her movements, interfering with her work, arranging for people to break into her home—in a campaign of cruel harassment that has been Kate’s unending nightmare for more than a decade . . . and which continues to this day.
A shocking and visceral memoir that lays bare the twisted mind of a stalker, In His Sights is a gripping tale of one woman’s descent into the dark side of love and her ongoing struggle to free herself.
“A chilling book.” —Helen Fisher, author of Why We Love and The Anatomy of Love
“Haunting.” —Janine Latus, author of If I am Missing or Dead
“I couldn’t put this book down.” —Mary-Ann Tirone Smith, author of Girls of a Tender Age: A Memoir
“Kate Brennan knows the torment, tedium, and intermittent terror of being stalked. In His Sights captures it all.” —J. Reid Meloy, Ph.D., Forensic Psychologist and author of Violent Attachments
