Break Free and Move On begins with a comprehensive description of narcissistic behaviours, an explanation of common terms and jargon, the cycle of relationship stages, and then addresses the thorny issue of what type of people narcissists choose. Traditionally it was believed that there were two types of victims, either codependent or exceedingly empathic or a combination of both. The latest alternative theory about a typical victim, who becomes a survivor, is someone who is high in Conscientiousness and Agreeableness. This changes many preconceived ideas. First-person narratives are interspersed in the text with analysis, illustrating many of the points that are being made. A series of case studies are examined in the final chapter.
