  They arrive alive. They leave dead. 
  But first, they give me their confessions. 
  The theme of this book is: Killer Families. 
  WHO AM I? My name is Jack Steen, and for those who arrive on my 'death' ward at the Asylum, I'm the last face many will see before they die. 
  I am the night nurse at the Asylum for the Criminally Insane. 
  Most of my patients are serial killers and mass murderers, and they know me as the Angel of Death. When they come onto my floor, I offer a deal: tell me their story - the one they haven't told anyone. Some of these killers have never confessed to their crimes, some kept certain information to themselves...those are the stories I want. 
  If they give them to me, I'll make their death...easier. They're already dying, that's why they're now my patients. 
  The majority of these killers are expert manipulators. I realize they could be playing with me and messing with my head. It's a chance I'm willing to take. 
  And now...they might just be playing with yours too.

  This story deals with the obvious fact that we humans are split, dual. We have urges to do the 'right' thing, to be honorable and wise, but we also frequently fail to follow these better instincts and follow instead urges to do dishonorable, evil things. We seem to battle within ourselves. Are we really composed of two different personalities housed within the same brain, within the same person? Dr Jeckyll in this story is so convinced and manages by scientific means to actually split himself into his ordinary composite self, and his evil self whom he calls Mr. Hyde. The horror of this unnatural split is well documented here and shows what might happen were this possible.
