RAPIST is a novel written by JAMES M. RUSSELL of Toronto CANADA. Inspired by Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Scarlett Letter, the author began to wonder - - suppose the protagonist punished himself instead of society punishing the protagonist. Suppose the hero was a teenage boy who raped his friend, living today instead of a woman in the 1600s? Patrick, the protagonist decides that if the court isn't going to punish him for his crime, then he is going to punish himself.

A somber discussion about pedophilia, the media and the Catholic Church.
