Book Description
'Nemesis'-not for the faint-hearted- is the second in a series of books from author Vincent Cobb, which explore childhood cruelty and psychopathic killings.
 
Cobb explores the dark side of life in a raw uncompromising style which some might find disturbing. He also majors on the depressive aspects of the victims - factors with which he can empathise as a fellow sufferer. 
 
"We all trust that childhood should be happy and contented and free from fear and harm but in reality for an unfortunate minority their early formative years are a catalogue of cruelty, terror and abuse."
 
The first of his books  'Leave a light on for Jesus' published in 2005 was essentially a true story and Cobb drew heavily from his own childhood experiences in the North of England during the 1940's of a violent abusive father, a lack of help from social services and betrayal by the catholic church.
 
There is a commonality of the fragility of the mind and subsequent torment this creates in this previous book, in Nemesis and also in his third book 'Contrition' due to be published next year.
 
'What really happens to the "lost children" of this world and what really goes on in the mind of a serial killer. Nemesis links a young psychic girl's vision to a paedophile serial killer's seven young victims and her efforts to identify the murderer to a young woman police officer before a total mental collapse. The killer remains at large, the horror ceases but for how long?"
