SHORT STORIES
BY THE AUTHOR
Nestled away in the suburban landscape of chain restaurants and clothing stores stands a building, a facility for the treatment of those who happen to be brought in through its front doors. Few take note of it and what patients are brought here are safely tucked away from society, left alone to suffer through what is considered treatment in this place.
What is happening behind these stone walls is an offense to the rational. And after being sent here in the wake of a failed suicide attempt, one patient will discover first hand the horrors that await her.
