Description: In the tradition of such classics as Sybil, the Minds of Billy Milligan and When Rabbit Howls, this is an unforgettable true story of multiple personality. In the foster care system, Alex Smith was the boy nobody wanted. No one knew what was causing ten-year-old Alex's spells of seemingly insane behavior until Carole Smith took on the challenge and eventually became Alex's adoptive mother. This is her account of the discovery of his eight "alters" and the horrendous childhood experiences that brought them into being. Together, Alex and Carole fought the damaging consequences of his early years and struggled to keep Alex from fulfilling his twisted destiny. As Alex slowly travels through the process of healing, what unfolds is a mother's unshakable love for her son and the victory of defeating the demons of mental illness.
