A hard-hitting modern British psychological thriller -- the compelling and unnerving story of how the demand for profit at a privately run high-security hospital leads to the ultimate breakdown in sanity -- from the acclaimed author of Turmfalke and The Disappearance of Lyndsey Barratt. British thriller writer John Wilson has won remarkable praise on both sides of the Atlantic. Now, once again, he displays his compelling combination of engaging storytelling skills, relentless tension and unnerving topical themes in his hard-hitting new psychological thriller. When investigative journalist Ben Kirby and his wife Janice leave London for a new life in rural Wales, he is struggling to find a subject for his next book. So he is astonished when he realises that a ready-made story is awaiting him on the other side of the valley -- Lindisholm Hospital. Boasting the latest in high-tech equipment, Lindisholm is a privately run high-security hospital, regarded as a model for a new profit-making approach to treating mental illness. But when its policy of involving low-risk patients in the local community results in a series of increasingly bizarre incidents -- including a fatal accident on his own farm -- Ben begins to suspect that deep within the cloisters of this ultra-modern facility there are forces at work more disturbing than he could ever imagine.
