Product DescriptionIt was meant to be a summer holiday job, an opportunity to learn something of the field of mental illness and in the beginning, Jenny Wycroft, a young medical student, became accustomed to the odd behaviour, the bizarre mannerisms and proclivities of the residents. She confessed to an element of uneasiness working with the disturbed and unpredictable but when one of the inmates disclosed to her the details of a long-forgotten murder, Jenny was uncertain how to proceed. Perhaps the patients senses were presenting her with a false world. Then again, perhaps the truth had surfaced after all these years. When Jenny discussed the story with a nurse, Pietra Calvina, who had also been party to the strange allegations, they decided to make tentative and discreet enquiries in order to test the veracity of the tale.
