They don't just want to win. They want to watch you break. Beneath the Mask pulls back the curtain on the subtle, calculated world of sadism. This isn't a book about cartoon villains; it's about the very real, everyday people who find an intoxicating sense of power in the distress of those around them. The most dangerous masks are the ones that look perfectly normal. It's time to stop wondering if you're "too sensitive" and start seeing the pattern for what it truly is.
