“The Perfect Daughter” by D. J. Palmer: The Title Character, who has Explicit Multiple Personality Disorder, is the Chief Suspect in a Murder

Author’s Acknowledgment: “Dissociative identity disorder [a.k.a. multiple personality disorder), which features prominently in this novel, is a very complex and multifaceted condition that is often incorrectly dramatized in books, TV, and the movies. I did a substantial amount of research on the disorder and prioritized portraying the character with DID as true to life as possible (1, p. 436).
