A psychiatrist working at one of Boston's most renowned psychiatric hospitals, Alice is a skilled professional who approaches her work with logic and reason, maintaining her boundaries with precision. She is a master of her craft-until the file of a new patient lands on her desk...

Ethan.
A man whose cold-blooded crimes are documented in court records, a master manipulator who uses his intelligence to control those around him, diagnosed as one of the most dangerous "psychopaths."
Meeting him will challenge not only Alice's professional limits but also her mental resilience.

Every word Ethan utters echoes in Alice's mind.
His piercing gaze, mocking smile, and the dark secrets he reveals from his past...
Though Alice strives to remain professional, the reader will feel the tension of an ever-present, dangerous closeness simmering beneath the surface.

This is the collision of two opposing worlds:
On one side, a psychiatrist devoted to understanding the human mind.

3 parts Ongoing
Alice is a 21-year-old woman trapped in a world of darkness, haunted by a troubled past filled with deep emotional and physical scars from her childhood. For the past three years, she has been living in an experimental facility for those deemed criminally insane, where she grapples with her inner demons. Despite her chilling actions as a serial killer-most notably, her final act of vengeance against a man who had assaulted her, where she took pleasure in watching him choke-Alice finds solace and expression in her love for cooking and baking, using these crafts as a means to connect with herself amid her chaotic life. Enter Devon Hanson, a charismatic volunteer at the facility and a published author and journalist. Devon's genuine interest in Alice sparks a transformation in her, as he seeks to understand the mind behind her actions. Through their conversations, Alice begins to confront her past, slowly uncovering the layers of her trauma. The bond they form is unexpected, challenging Alice to rethink her existence and the choices she made, as Devon's presence offers a glimpse of hope and the possibility of redemption in a world that has largely abandoned her. As Alice and Devon navigate their complex relationship, they become entwined in a dangerous dance that tests the boundaries of trust, sanity, and morality. Their interactions not only provide Alice a chance to confront her painful memories but also uncover the dark secrets of the facility itself. Hidden agendas and twisted motives emerge, leading both characters down a path that confronts the very nature of good and evil, ultimately forcing Alice to decide if she can embrace a future beyond her past.
