He imprisons her at Deadwater Manor, a psychiatric hospital with an unscrupulous past.

Check out the great reviews on this novel that debuted on the #1 Hot New Releases bestseller list. Note: This book is intended for mature young adult, new adult, and older audiences due to profanity and sensual content. BACKGROUND: The inspiration for the story came from Sandie's beloved father who worked in various psychiatric hospitals during short periods of his career. In the attic of one such hospital, he made a disturbing discovery - one that bothered Sandie so much, she had to create a story around it. Though fiction, many parts of the book intertwine the patient routines, treatments and outbursts that she learned from her father and other research in a way that makes the story vivid through Jeannie's perspective.

A true literary masterpiece."

Although, I was sorry the book had to have an ending." June Katherina, Amazon Customer "Holy Heck This book is intense I'd classify this book somewhere between YA and NA, as the main character is subjected to some pretty intense situations. This book sucker punches you in the gut, as you can only witness as 18 year old Jeannie is held captive in an insane asylum. Every word of every horror she is put through will stay with you.
