Perfect Victim

Dr. Catherine Faber is celebrated as a hero in the field of psychology, renowned for her ability to help women escape abusive relationships. Her most high-profile case, defending socialite Vanessa Hale against her allegedly abusive husband, catapults Catherine to national fame. But as the accolades roll in, disturbing whispers begin to surface. Former clients question the authenticity of their experiences, hinting that Catherine may have manipulated their memories.
As the scrutiny intensifies, Catherine is forced to grapple with unsettling revelations. Vanessa's once-heroic narrative starts to crumble under the weight of new evidence, suggesting she may have exaggerated-or even fabricated-her claims of abuse. As Catherine scrambles to protect her reputation and defend Vanessa's credibility, she faces mounting pressure from the media and legal teams. In a shocking twist, it's revealed that Vanessa orchestrated the entire scandal to escape an inconvenient marriage and elevate her public profile.
But Catherine's own dark secrets come to light as well. Far from the innocent advocate she appeared to be, Catherine's actions are exposed as manipulative and abusive. Her unresolved trauma from a tormented childhood has led her to project her own pain onto her clients, coercing them into believing they were victims. As her professional world collapses, Catherine is isolated and disgraced. Former clients sue her for malpractice, and her once-glorious career disintegrates.
In the end, Catherine is forced to confront the harrowing truth: she has become the very monster she fought against. Perfect Victim is a gripping psychological thriller that delves into the complexities of manipulation, trauma, and the fine line between hero and villain. With its shocking twists and relentless suspense, this novel will leave you questioning the nature of truth and the consequences of unchecked ambition.
