Author: Linden Gross
Publisher: Da Capo Lifelong Books
ISBN: 9781569246047
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
Stalking may seem like something that happens only to celebrities. In fact, it is an overlooked, yet extremely prevalent form of domestic violence--far more widespread than many people suppose. Now journalist Linden Gross provides all the necessary tools readers need to know to handle inappropriate obsessive attention. Readers will discover how to control their natural reactions (which often put victims at a disadvantage), how to stop feeding the obsessive interaction that perpetuates stalking situations, and how to protect their privacy and safety. Gross explains how these dangerous obsessions begin, the patterns they take, and what potential victims can do before the nightmare becomes real. Surviving a Stalker also draws on the expertise of psychologists and offers secrets from personal security professionals.

How to deal with a stalker
Author: Michael Wenkart
Publisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 3735737846
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 213
Book Description
Stalking is an increasingly prevalent and disturbing problem in today’s society, made worse and more frightening by the internet and the increasing amount of legal and illegal surveillance that is happening. Cyberstalking has become such a problem that it has had to be enshrined in law as a distinct crime. It is, therefore, important that potential innocent victims are able to spot the signs that they are being, or about to be, stalked, what to do to prevent and dissuade the stalker and what rights and resort they have against the perpetrators. This compilation covers all this as well as looking at self-defence as a means of protection – and its legal implications and the increasingly relevant issue of surveillance and ‘gang stalking.’ You have the right to protection– and informing yourself is the first step in this process.

Diary of a Stalker
Author: Electa Rome Parks

ISBN: 159983250X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
Electa Rome Parks paints a powerful portrait of a crazed fan who can't seem to close the book on the affair after a one-night-stand with a famous author—and who will stop at nothing to make him hers. Even if that means killing him. . . Bestselling author Xavier Preston is used to women throwing themselves at him. On top of being a successful writer, he's also tall, dark and sexy as sin. He's always relished the attention, in fact, and is ever-willing to entertain the erotic urges of women wanting to get between more than the covers of his novels. Except once he meets Kendall, he decides it's time to put his womanizing ways behind him and devote himself to her entirely. Well, almost. . . Gorgeous Pilar is the last decadent treat Xavier decides he'll help himself to—thinking they are both on the same "no strings" page. Except behind Pilar's fine façade beats the heart of a raving maniac—a fatally attracted fan addicted to the kind of hot loving only Xavier can give her. And she's not about to let him get away from her so easily. So what starts out as a discreet dalliance soon spirals into a deadly game of obsession and pain—which can only have one winner. . .

Give Me Everything You Have
Author: James Lasdun
Publisher: Farrar, Straus and Giroux
ISBN: 0374708908
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
A true story of obsessive love turning to obsessive hate in the crucible of the digital age. Give Me Everything You Have chronicles author James Lasdun's strange and harrowing ordeal at the hands of a former student, a self-styled "verbal terrorist," who began trying, in her words, to "ruin him." Hate mail, online postings, and public accusations of plagiarism and sexual misconduct were her weapons of choice and, as with more conventional terrorist weapons, proved remarkably difficult to combat. James Lasdun's account, while terrifying, is told with compassion and humor, and brilliantly succeeds in turning a highly personal story into a profound meditation on subjects as varied as madness, race, Middle East politics, and the meaning of honor and reputation in the Internet age.

Boy Gets Girl
Author: Rebecca Gilman
Publisher: Macmillan + ORM
ISBN: 1429998296
Category : Drama
Languages : en
Pages : 128
Book Description
What is a stalker? And what kind of life can a woman lead when she knows she is being followed, obsessively and perhaps dangerously, by one? This is the dilemma facing Theresa Bedell, a reporter in New York, in Rebecca Gilman's tensely fascinating new play. When Theresa goes on an awkward blind date with a friend of a friend, she sees no reason to continue the relationship--but the man, an attractive fellow named Tony, thinks otherwise. While Theresa is at first annoyed yet flattered by his continuing attention, her attitude gradually changes to one of fear and fury when he starts violently to menace her and those around her. In brilliantly delineating the kind of terror a woman in full control of her life feels when everything around her suddenly seems to be a threat, Gilman probes the dark side of relationships in the 1990s with the rich insight and compelling characterizations that have distinguished her earlier plays and made her one of the most exciting young playwrights working today.
