Keith Ablow is a forensic psychiatrist who has worked with violent, severely mentally ill and drug-dependent men and women from every level of society. His clients range from those who are homeless or imprisoned to executives of large corporations to members of law enforcement and government. His view of the world in which we live -- that all of us suffer, that none of us is born evil, and that each of us must be helped to confront the truth about our lives -- is central to his therapeutic approach with patients and his writing.
Ablow was raised in Marblehead, Massachusetts, and graduated from Brown University and Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. While a medical student, he worked as a reporter for Newsweek magazine, a freelance writer for the Washington Post and Baltimore Sun
ger is a forensic psychiatrist who hates authority, fears intimacy, uses sex as an aesthetic, is tortured by his professional mistakes, and can't free himself from the shadows of a brutal, alcoholic father and an absent, unfeeling mother. But it is precisely this injured psyche that allows him to understand the deranged behavior of the mental and emotional outcasts who cross his professional path.
As Denial opens, all of Clevenger's understanding and expertise are put to the test: He has been asked to rubber-stamp the mental competence of a homeless schizophrenic who has confessed to a particularly grisly murder. As evidence of a shocking series of murders begins to mount, Clevenger will be forced to confront his own most terrifying and powerful demons.
