By Joan De La Haye

 

Sarah is forced to the edge of sanity by the ghosts of her family's past. Suffering from violent and bloody hallucinations, she seeks the help of psychiatrist and friend, Michael Brink. After being sent to an institution in a catatonic state covered in blood - from stabbing her unfaithful boyfriend - Sarah is forced to confront the truth about her father's death and the demon, Jack, who caused her father's suicide and is now the reason for her horrific hallucinations. Unlike her father, Sarah refuses to kill herself. She bargains for her life and succeeds. In Sarah's struggle to regain her life and her sanity, she discovers more things to the world than she could ever have imagined and leaves her seeking the answer to the nagging question, "Who is really mad?"

About the Author

 Joan De La Haye was born in Pretoria on the 17^th of January 1977 at 7pm.

The youngest of three children raised by parents in the Diplomatic service, Joan was educated abroad, finally completing her education in Vienna. She speaks four languages and is qualified in clinical hypnotherapy and also has a diploma in Fine Art and Creative Design.

If you were to ask how long Joan has been writing, the answer would depend on who you asked. If you were to ask either her mother or her grandmother, they would both say that she's been writing since she first learned to hold a pencil. Joan on the other hand would answer that she penned her first story at the age of twelve, while sitting in her mother’s office during a school holiday, to while away the time.

Joan has a profound interest in the occult and the paranormal which is evident in her writing.

She lives in Johannesburg.

You can find Joan on My Space, Facebook, Twitter, Goodreads, and her blog.
