Gianluca Testa is an actor, so he wrote this story after a period of study on the psychology of the character of a psychopathic killer that he was supposed to play in the cinema. What are the thoughts of a psychopath? How many potential serial killers are hiding among us and never take the decisive step that leads them to the other side, to cross the thin wall that separates the only imagined evil from the real one? The author's answer is a frightening journey into the darkest depths of the human psyche.
