    About this ebook

    Dr. Kohms is used to listening to people talk about the pieces in their lives that aren’t playing well together. But does he know his own life as well as he thinks he does? Does anyone truly know what their partners, dependents, or friends are up to? In this short tale, sink into the prison to which Peter Kohms is sequestered, and be forced to watch a version of life at home when he isn’t around.
