Designed to make me insane

The brake light went out on my car the other day. No big deal, just needs a new bulb. When I open the trunk to replace the bulb, there is nothing indicating that a tail light even exists. No wires, no fixture, no holder, just a metal frame. I notice a couple screws in the frame, so I take them out. Now the frame drops down and reveals a plastic holder with wires attached.
Still no bulb.
I remove the plastic holder by detaching several wires and a small plastic clip that breaks as I remove it.
At last, some wires that run to what appears to be a bulb holder, but alas, no way to get to the bulb unless I unscrew the holder. 
One hour later I finally get the bulb out. In my trunk I now have about twenty different parts that all have to be reassembled. It is enough to make a grown man cry. What ever happened to simplicity? Just Say'n

Readers’ hearts will be beating hard as they join in this adventure where people come back from the dead, wear so many facades you’re not quite sure who’s on the good or bad side of the law, while experiencing the growing attraction between the lady ‘cop’ who could be lying through her teeth and the normally bored psychologist who stepped into the adventure of a lifetime.

The author, a practicing psychotherapist, certainly knows how to light a fire at the beginning of a tale and guide the reader through all types of personalities and red herrings that will make them very disappointed when the story has to come to an end.

Quill Says: This is one psychologist who has met his match when it comes to a truly astonishing female!
