The Collector (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781490992877)

Vicki Foster holds a PhD in Clinical Psychology and is a Professor and Psychotherapist. She has worked in every facet of mental health imaginable including work on both the Navajo and Apache reservations. During her Doctoral training she witnessed a mass murder that sparked an interest in FBI Profiling and the pathological mind. She began researching forensics and the apprehension of sociopathic criminals. Dr. Foster is currently in training for her Black Belt in Seven Star Mantis Kung Fu. She wrote a third of this book years ago, but needed just the right ending to feel satisfied in completing this story. She has provided you an interesting journey that grabs you right away and keeps you riveted until the end. Dr. Foster has a great appreciation for all of life and nature. She enjoys people of all types. Vicki grew up in Southern California in a very dysfunctional family. She knew that knowledge was power and despite the oppressive forces working against her from within her family, she had the strength to stand up for what was right. "The warrior always stands alone." As a result of her respect for all individuals, she was cast out of her family, who to this day do not speak to her, choosing fear, hatred and racism over love. Today she lives on the West Coast with her beautiful daughter Haley, her therapy animals and not far from her life long best friend.
