Meghan has been having strange visions. Visions of dead people, visions of killing the people she cares most about, visions of herself laughing down at her mother's corpse...They're not really something she wants to share with anyone either. They'd lock her up in a crazy house she's certain she doesn't belong in... But when she wakes up in The Institution, a building that shelters the mentally ill, she knows there's something wrong. She doesn't belong there. She's not crazy! Then she meets Jace. He shies away from the others and claims to be in the same predicament, but Meghan doesn't know who to trust. How can you trust anyone in an insane asylum? Can she trust him? Or herself for that matter?
