The pages of the calendar were wiped away by time, and another year came and went. Dr. Keller was getting more and more frustrated.
“I’ve read your latest report,” Dr. Lewison told Gilbert Keller. “Do you think there’s a genuine lacuna, or are they playing games?”
“They’re playing games, Otto. It’s as though they know what I’m trying to do, and they won’t let me.”
“I think Ashley genuinely wants to help, but they won’t allow her to. Usually under hypnosis you can get through to them,
but Toni is very strong. She takes complete control, and she’s dangerous.”
“Dangerous?” “Yes. Imagine how much hatred she must have in her to murder and castrate five men.”
The rest of the year went no better. Dr. Keller was having success with his other patients,
but Ashley, the one he was most concerned about, was making no progress.
Dr. Keller had a feeling that Toni enjoyed playing games with him. She was determined that he was not going to succeed.
And then, unexpectedly, there was a breakthrough. It started with another letter from Dr. Patterson.
June 5. Dear Ashley, I’m on my way to New York to take care of some business, and I would like very much to stop by and see you.
I will call Dr. Lewison, and if there’s no objection, you can expect me around the 25th. Much love, Father.
