Description

An antagonist is strongly implied to be a serial killer who rapes his victims. At one point, he drugs the main character and attempts to mutilate his genitals, getting as far as unbuttoning his pants, but is interrupted. In a flashback, a psychologist suggests the main character (a child at the time) has a sleep disorder as a result of PTSD from sexual abuse. The theory is unfounded and the main character was not sexually abused.
