A supernatural horror.This book is a gripping tale about a mysterious asylum located out of sight of any passers-by next to a dark forest. For Zahid Zaman, a newly-graduated nursing assistant, there are too many questions to ignore - but even his fellow staff at St Mark's Psychiatric Hospital seem keen to keep the answers hidden. Why are patients taken here from all over the country, instead of being treated locally? What makes them so terrifying? As he soon finds out, the key to this isolated asylum may lie in the supernatural and occult forces that possess it. Do you dare to enter an asylum? An environment where you are never sure what is really going on?
Zaman's novel is a short one that presents an effectively creepy story without ever being boring. There's no stunting the pace of the rapidly unfolding story, in which an asylum's newest employee begins to investigate his workplace's weird tendencies. Why is the ward shaped like a crucifix? Who is it that's 'almost here' and everyone keeps talking about? Why is 6 o clock always particularly violent? - Nathan, www.fictiondb.com
