They said she needed help. But the real help she needed was escaping this place with her life.

Niyah Smith thought her biggest problem was her parents’ crumbling marriage. But when she’s framed by a crooked cop and sentenced to Bordeaux Behavioral Hospital, she finds herself trapped in a living nightmare.

At first, the hospital seems like a place of healing. But Niyah soon discovers the horrific truth: it’s an underground chamber of torture, experimentation and death, all concealed behind a gleaming facade. Ruled with sinister precision by the corrupt Dr. Jackyl and her sister Officer Hyde, Niyah becomes a target for their sadistic experiments.

As the vicious “treatment” takes its toll, stripping away her grip on reality, Niyah must find a way to expose the hospital’s monstrous secret before it’s too late. But with the entire system pitted against her, does she have any hope of escape?

With the clock ticking down to the day she’ll be declared a “failure”, Niyah s only chance rests with her high school sweetheart Swift who is hatching a do-or-die plan to bust her out. If they can outwit the diabolical staff and unmask the hospital’s criminal conspiracy before time runs out, they may just save Niyah – and countless other innocent victims.

But with twisted minds controlling her every waking moment inside the asylum walls, can Niyah maintain her grip on the truth long enough to survive and expose the hospital’s horror? Her fight for freedom has begun – if only she can survive long enough to see it through to the very end.

I came across Tanisha Stewart a few months ago and I'm hooked! This book was good but I know there's more to the story. I'm ready for part two like right now. Another job we'll done!

Loved the story. The narrator almost made me give up. The acting for the different characters reminded me of when I was in high school trying to disguise my voice to make prank phone calls. I'm glad I stuck with it because the story is actually really good. Definite page turner. I would have loved to hear more about how the treatment was working to erase her thoughts. There was so much lead up to that and then the story veered off. I love the addition of the father's infidelity. It gave the story the little bit of mess that I truly enjoy.

Great story, narrator eh.

I dislike the narrator. She had no range and made the narrated of sound more like an elderly person as teen/young adults

Just because it was a much better than some of the other ones that she has written

I really enjoyed this book; the pacing was great, and the story kept me interested the entire time.

“An enjoyable and well-written book that held my interest and left me wanting to read more.”

This storyline had so much potential, and initially I was really interested in the characters and plot. Unfortunately, the villains and their motives were never really developed, and major plot points just seemed to be forgotten about (best friends just disappear for most of the book, we never find out what happened to the person in the original video, and the main character seems to fluctuate between being incredibly mature / intelligent and making incredibly dumb decisions). The ending was very flimsy and felt like a storybook. The narration was decent though, and was probably the best part for this one.

Solid Premise But Doesn’t Live Up to It
