A History of Madness

A.D. Childers

Sinossi

When Didion Dumont wakes up in the hospital after a failed suicide attempt, she finds she was successful in one aspect: she will not be returning to the tatters of her former life.
 
While in a state psychiatric facility, she receives surprising news: she will be moved to Riverside Rehabilitation, a private psychiatric hospital in rural Iowa that takes on special cases like hers.
 
Didion can’t believe the doctor at Riverside will find anything ‘special’ about the hallucinations she has suffered since childhood. But when she meets the other patients in the Green Ward, it is clear that something strange is happening at Riverside.
 
As she learns about the peculiar history that connects the Green Ward patients, she discovers there is much more behind her mysterious condition than she ever imagined. Didion finds herself asking who she can trust... starting with herself.

Dive into a pulse-pounding psychological thriller where a young FBI trainee enters the lion’s den in pursuit of a chilling serial killer.

Racing against time, she deciphers cryptic riddles, follows delicate forensic threads, and confronts horrors both seen and unseen. Every whispered confession and shadowed corridor brings her closer to a deadly rescue mission—and to a final confrontation that will test her resolve and redefine her limits. Perfect for listeners who crave suspense, razor-sharp intellect, and the triumph of resilience in the face of unspeakable fear.

The Descendant

H. P. Lovecraft

"The Descendant" is a story fragment by American horror fiction writer H. P. Lovecraft, believed to have been written in 1927. It was first published in the journal Leaves in 1938, after Lovecraft's death.
Inspiration: Lovecraft may have been referring to this attempt at a story when he wrote that he was "making a very careful study of London...in order to get background for tales involving richer antiquities than America can furnish."
