Thanks so much to NetGalley, Park Row Books and AF Brady for the opportunity to read and review her debut novel.
This is the story of Dr Sam James, a psychologist at Typhlos, a psychiatric institute in NYC. At work, she has the reputation of being the best doctor and the one able to reach those patients no one else can. However, the private side of Sam is very different. She is a barely-functioning alcoholic in a very abusive relationship. She feels like she can't save herself so her mission is to save others.
Richard comes to Typhlos an enigma. He won't talk, won't complete his paperwork, seems to function at a high level. No one can understand why he's there and they've only heard rumors about why he was in prison for so long before coming to Typhlos. Sam takes Richard on, only to be confronted with her own demons while she's trying to figure out his.
A great debut novel - kept me reading til the ending, which I loved.
