Headcase
"This is the darkest of the Clement books, and possibly the best. It's funnier than it has any right to be given the subject matter, and the ending floored me. If you've read the first three, you already know you're reading this. If you haven't, go back and start with Who Sent Clement? You'll thank me."

Delusion is the ideal place to rest on a painful journey to the truth
David Nunn considers himself a good man. Employed as a counsellor for a mental health charity in North London, his typical day revolves around broken minds and dysfunctional lives.
Then, one day in January, a young man staggers into the charity’s office; no appointment booked and seemingly in the grip of a drug-induced episode. David reluctantly agrees to see the young man.
It proves a brief but fateful encounter.
Within days of that meeting, two men gatecrash David’s life; their motives wildly different but each making a demand. What they both have in common is their propensity for violence and deep-rooted psychological issues.
As his world descends into turmoil, David must decide if one of those men can save him from the other. Perhaps more importantly, can he save a self-confessed headcase from himself?
