The most dangerous patient isn't listed on any chart.
Patient 34 at the Fancher Institute for the Criminally Insane is a ghost. No name. No history. Just a beautiful, violent man strapped to a bed, supposedly too sedated to think.
But I see his eyes following me.
When I enter his room, the air crackles with electricity.
The staff claims he's barely conscious, but when our gazes lock, I feel understood in a way that terrifies me.
I'm only here as an undercover reporter, chasing a different story. I have my own secrets to protect. But everything about Patient 34 screams wrong.
I know I should walk away. But some mysteries sink their teeth in deep and never let go.
