"Something is happening around here, and whilst you sit on your ass, I'm going to find out what it is."
"I admire your determination, really. I'll be sure to comment on it when you turn up in a body bag."

Addison didn't think it could get much worse than being admitted to a secluded, 'old fashioned' mental hospital, but when patients begin to go missing only to turn up dead a few days later, she quickly comes to the conclusion that the patients weren't the craziest thing behind the walls of Animus Valley.
Unable to stand back idly with the fear that she might be next, she tried her best to get answers out of the other patients, specifically Caim, who happened to be there whenever there's trouble, but when none of them talk, she takes it into her own hands.
And the more she unravels, the more her world becomes disjointed from beneath her. The grip she had on reality begins to slip.
Because after all, you don't go to Animus insane...
... It makes you that way.

Like Minds III - Asylum (American Horror Story crossover)
Alex just left Nigel with only leaving a message on a note, telling him he probably comes back - only if possible. Obviously this is a hit in the face for Nigel. The first few months are terrible, and it only gets worse as he gets no word from Alex. No sign of him that could possibly give him some strength to go on. After more months, he loses his hope, killing everyone around as if that would make anything better. Nigel gets locked up in an asylum, declared for mentally unstable: charged for many, many murders. And since he doesn't ages, they keep him for experiments. Since they are very religious in there, they believe it's the Devil his son. After eight years, somehow Nigel keeps seeing this blonde-reddish boy visiting him. He tells him stories, being all cheeky and forces him to wait. The doctors around are trying anything to get that boy out of Nigel his mind, and when they don't succeed, they decide to use electroshock therapy for that. As Nigel threats to lose Alex, the connection between the two fades a lot. Alex has barely enough strength to stay around, and gets forced to find a body before he disappears forever. Strangely enough a patient passes by during Nigel his therapy. A suspicious girl that always wants to know everything that's going around. Since she is the only weak person of them all in a near distance, Alex gets into her body - being forced to share it with another soul. As soon as Nigel realizes that the girl isn't just somebody, and they can't get away from each other, there's only one option left. But what will happen? Will Alex get his body back?

Book 1: The Architect of Chaos
To understand a killer, you must walk the edge of your own mind. But how far is too far? Dr. Ava Sinclair, a brilliant but emotionally scarred psychiatrist, is tasked with evaluating Marcus Ravel, a notorious Trinidadian serial killer and the ruthless right-hand man of the infamous drug lord, Cyrus "The Ghost" Sadee. Marcus awaits execution, but his final wish is to speak with someone who can "understand" him. Ava is reluctant-her traumatic past in dealing with violent criminals resurfaces-but she accepts the challenge, drawn by a need to uncover the enigma behind his crimes. As Ava dives into Marcus's psyche, he begins to recount his crimes, painting each murder not as acts of brutality, but as pieces of a chilling "masterpiece"-each victim chosen and killed with unnerving precision for reasons only he fully understands. He speaks of patterns in human nature, a "design" he believes exists in chaos, and how he sees himself as the ultimate harbinger of justice for those who "disrupt the balance." Through their sessions, Ava finds herself entangled in Marcus's labyrinthine mind games. He reveals intimate knowledge of her past, suggesting he might have orchestrated events in her own life. She starts to question whether her role in this process is as objective as it seems or if Marcus has been manipulating her from the start. As Marcus recounts each crime, Ava begins to notice eerie similarities between his victims and people she knows. Is it coincidence, or is there a deeper connection between her and Marcus's gruesome "masterpiece"?Complete

Deadly Silent | Book 2
[BOOK TWO] "Anniversaries to some are like counting the years spent doing something great, years spent together, or years spent alive." I started slowly, voice dropping to a drawl as I peeked cautiously out of my bedroom blinds, scanning the road to see if there was a cloaked figure watching my every movement. "I view anniversaries as counting down the days till death finds me." *** After the events of her wonderfully packed 21st birthday, Addison was ready to retire back into her home and never again see the light of day.
