In the Rape of Eve: The True Story Behind the Three Faces of Eve, Dr. Ross provides a documented account of the exploitation of Chris Sizemore, the real Eve, by her psychiatrist, Dr. Corbett Thigpen. In 1953, Dr. Thigpen had Chris Sizemore sign over her lifetime story rights to him and his colleague, Dr. Hervey Cleckley: the two doctors paid her $3.00 for these rights - one dollar for each of her three personalities. This was all the money she received for the best selling book The Three Faces of Eve, written by Drs. Thigpen and Cleckley. The control, exploitation and abuse of Chris Sizemore by the author of her biography lasted from the early 1950's into the 1990's and ended only with Dr. Thigpens's death.

The Rape of Eve is based on extensive background research and documents gathered by Dr. Ross, Chris Costner Sizemore and Jerry Naylor as they worked together on the book.
