It is universally acknowledged that a good person in possession of a small or large fortune will often be parted from it!
There is a spine-chilling resemblance to the praying mantis in human behaviour. The mantis waits for its prey, then quickly dispatches it. The female often eats its mate during or after copulation in sexual cannibalism. Humans don't eat each other but devour through envy, greed, blackmail and extortion. Either sex, like the mantis, preys. This book is classed as fiction but the human interaction is taken from real life experiences. Hatred, seeking revenge, is dramatised.
You will see how incidents play out. Anybody could be standing innocently on the edge of a pending disaster not realising it. Your partner could have designs you never dreamt off. Don't be a victim. Protect your mind body and soul not forgetting your wallet. If you get wounded you will live with it forever.
William Evans, now under 'witness protection' arrives in Sydney, Australia, as John Williams. He reads a warning but pays no heed becoming welcome bait for the mantis syndrome.
Nothing is sacred when the syndrome has you in sight. It's usually too late. What's left of your carcass is fought over by lawyers, accountants and bank managers. All want their pound of any remaining flesh becoming richer at your expense. John Williams still believed in honour. His word is his bond often sealed with a hand shake.
In today's cyber digital world honour is a relic of ages past. Somebody always wants what you have. Don't become a victim of the syndrome. Note the warning signs. Learn how to interpret them. A Mantis could be sat beside you on a flight, or where you work, at a party, or a recent lover plotting to entrap you. Once snared you are doomed. Don't let it happen. Read on to protect yourself.
Life is short. A mantis will make it seem an eternity.
