"I think I'm a better problem-solver because of my schizophrenia. When you have to question reality every single day, I think that makes you question how you view the world."

In "Tiny Dancer," Bethan Greenaway, a gifted dancer diagnosed with schizophrenia and confined in a psychiatric facility under suspicion of a triple murder, forms an unlikely partnership with FBI agent Derek Morgan. Despite her institutionalized life, Bethan's keen insights into human behavior, honed by her passion for dance, become crucial in unraveling a perplexing series of crimes. As they delve into the shadows of the criminal psyche, Bethan's artistry not only provides solace amidst her turmoil but also uncovers profound truths that challenge Morgan's conventional investigative methods. Together, they navigate the blurred boundaries between sanity and madness, discovering that sometimes, the truest answers lie in the most unexpected places.

Psychopathy
(A Criminal Minds Fanfic {Dr. Spencer Reid}) Book 2 in the "Psychosis" series. As long as the members of the BAU have known her, Ciara Byrne has kept a wealth of secrets- secrets that seemed to destroy her even as she held tightly onto them. After a year of working with her, most of them had learned to let it go and had given up on ever finding out those secrets. But when Ciara goes missing, letting those secrets stay hidden may not be an option anymore. Dr. Spencer Reid thought he knew Ciara. But as the investigation goes on, more holes start to appear in the plot of her life, and he starts to realize how little he actually knew her. But what he did know was that her disappearance left him realizing how much his feelings for her had grown and that he should have told her that long ago. He knew that the key to finding her before it was too late was hidden somewhere in the secrets of her past, and when the genius set his mind to something, nothing and no one could stop him. The clock is ticking. An agent's life is on the line. And if the BAU wants to have any chance of seeing Ciara again, they'll have to work hard to unearth the secrets she fought so hard to keep buried. *Rated Mature for scenes depicting sexual assault and graphic tortureComplete![La La Lost You [ spencer reid x reader ]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/355379381-256-k966141.jpg)
