Medicate. Sleep. REPEAT.

When Aurora's brother is sent away to "get better," she never imagines it will be the last time she sees him alive. The hospital calls it a tragedy. Aurora calls it a lie.
Determined to uncover the truth, she tricks her way into the same facility that took him-posing as a patient to experience it from the inside. But the deeper she digs, the more she realizes that some treatments aren't meant to heal... they're meant to hide.
