A DANCE WITH THE DEVIL is a page-turning exposé of an
intelligent woman's descent into the crazy-making world of
psychopaths. The author, Barbara Bentley, bares her soul as a
victim and survivor in a must-read written to help men and
women recognize a psychopath's deviate behavior before it's too
late for them.
As a victim, she is enchanted by an impostor retired rear admiral,
who is the son of Admiral Perry of World War II Seabees fame.
Her admiral drains her financially and emotionally, and then
attempts to kill her. Afterwards, Bentley is victimized by the
no-fault divorce law of California. As a survivor, she discovers
personal growth, which frees her from the psychopath and
propels her to change the absurd sacrosanct law.
This book is timely and relevant because one of every twenty-five
Americans is a psychopath who wreaks havoc on innocent
victims. But what happens to victims after an encounter? How
does she or he cope and move beyond the pain. A DANCE WITH
THE DEVIL answers these questions in a chatty and personal
style. In addition, it and this web page offer websites for
personal understanding and growth.

THE ADMIRAL'S WIFE was the working title of my manuscript. I love
visualization so I designed this graphic. The admiral's bar is John's , the
necklace is one he bought and it stands for the Inaugural Ball diamond
necklace that John insisted I have. The flag represents John being born on
the Fourth of July and his ties to the military through his father, Admiral
Perry who started the Seabee's in World War II. All are encased in a heart
to symbolize the love I once had for this man.
