Publisher's Synopsis
At Androscoggin State Hospital in 1971, as patients' rights gain a foothold in Maine, staff members Adam Rawlings and Rachael Taylor, and David Allen, a psychology graduate student, hope for an above average day, but find themselves ensnared in a murder investigation. Evidence may point to a few residents and staff members, but reality is hard to pinpoint on a sometimes violent ward. Will staff errors, bad judgement, escalating behavior, and archaic procedure interfere with closing the care? History haunts every corner as they risk their personal and professional lives assisting local police, and struggle not to compromise their dedication to treatment and the dignity of residents.
