Reedorito
A novel of captivity, clarity, and the cost of escape.
It was supposed to be a ride with her mother. Instead, she's dropped into a mental institution with no warning, no goodbye, and no choice. Inside, she meets Collin and Sary-roommates with secrets of their own-and begins to believe the lie: that this place is helping her.
Three months later, a new patient arrives with a plan to escape, and suddenly everything changes. Alarms. Fire exits. Fences. Freedom.
On the run and alone, she disappears into the mountains, finding shelter in an abandoned mine-and a strange, almost magical new life among forgotten treasure and a wild companion. For two years, silence becomes healing.
But the institution hasn't forgotten her.
