Out Of The Dark by Linda Caine

This is the story of Linda Caine's descent into madness and her battle to find a way out. After suffering a massive psychological breakdown she reviews her life from a room in a private mental hospital. And with the help of psychotherapist Robin Royston, she searches for clues that might explain why she so desperately wants to die. And discovers that even in her orderly life, nothing is as it seems, nobody is above suspicion.
A truly remarkable tale of a woman whose fears and depression threaten her life, and it is told by her and the psychotherapist who treated herLinda has an enviable lifestyle, with a devoted (second) husband, two children, a boy and a girl. They have ample money (Linda's husband is a lawyer), and all seems well until Linda is overcome by fears which drive her almost to suicide. Indeed, death seems a welcome way out of her misery. She starts treatment with Dr Royston, and realises that the secrets of her childhood and adolescence in Africa lie at the heart of her problems, and are buried deep in her mind. Uncovering the past is full of trauma, and it makes a riveting story which captivates from start to finish.
Linda Caine is a self taught artist and calligrapher. Her work is in private collections in Africa, the Isle of Man, England, and the United States of America.
