Desperate to find answers after her sister died while fleeing Hollyhock Asylum, a shadowy psychiatric institution, Morgan Bright hatches a plan to go undercover as a patient. Assuming the identity of a patient named Charlotte, Morgan enters a world of torturous treatments and unsettling secrets. Director Edevane’s “cures” are barbaric, with electroshock therapy and bizarre contraptions used to control the women who have been committed. As the asylum’s true purpose unfolds, the line between Morgan and Charlotte begins to blur so that Morgan no longer knows her true self. The narrative delves into sensitive topics like forced pregnancy, adding a disturbing layer to the horror. Erin Walker’s narration is the perfect addition to this already chilling novel, capturing the characters’ palpable fear and increasing instability while enhancing the story’s deeply unsettling atmosphere.
VERDICT A powerful blend of psychological horror and social commentary, this will have listeners catching their breath in fear. Fans of Ana Reyes’s The House in the Pines or Jennifer Cody Epstein’s The Madwomen of Paris won’t want to miss Panatier’s (The Phlebotomist) hair-raising latest.
