Delaney Novak has always thought of herself as a healer. But after moving to Bellefonte, Pennsylvania and taking a job at Bellefonte Asylum as a psychiatrist , she soon realizes her bright eyed dreams of being a doctor and healing the human mind are further out of reach than planned. Her days are instead spent administering drugs to the criminally insane and trying to make it through the double shifts at the understaffed hospital. Each day becomes harder to endure, and more dull than the last.
Just when Dr. Novak starts rethinking her career, a deranged, but charming criminal comes to the small town's asylum. With no concrete past, but plenty of destruction in the present, this patient awakens Delaney's mind and her original dreams of curing psychosis. But soon she finds herself feeling drawn to the devil himself. Ideals she had once stood by seem to fade away for this small town doctor with each passing session with the oddly disarming and peculiar patient. Each day she finds herself wearing a new mask, not sure of who she has become or where she is going.
She may soon discover how dangerous masks can be.
*This story is based loosely on the origin of the Joker and Harley Quinn. I don't know any more than what the first paragraph of Wikipedia tells. Just that she was his psychiatrist before his obsessed lover. Just kind of going with that main theme and running with it. Characters have been given new names/new personal histories, and this story doesn't take place in Gotham. I'm not the greatest writer and there will be mistakes. This is purely a creative outlet for me.*

I don't want to think about what I'm gonna do to him!" and shortly after: "Maybe I should just leave before he sees me? No! I can't. When you are rolling off a cliff you just can't stop. I guess you need to feel the bottom. The only problem - you don't know where that bottom is." And she is trying to analyze how is it that she got attached to him so quickly and so strongly: "What has he done to me? Is it some kind of a spell? How could I get so attached to him so soon?

Behind the Screen
The book follows a protagonist whose mind begins to unravel as they are plagued by eerie occurrences that blur the line between reality and delusion. It begins with subtle shifts-a feeling of being watched, strange reflections, whispers at the edges of perception-but as the story unfolds, these sensations grow more intense and impossible to ignore. The protagonist starts questioning their own sanity, struggling to differentiate between what's real and what's in their head. Is someone-or something-watching them, or are they simply losing their grip on reality? As they spiral deeper into paranoia, the boundaries of their own identity begin to fracture, and they realize they may not be the only one in control of their mind. With each passing day, the tension grows, and the truth becomes harder to discern. The story keeps readers on edge, with unreliable narration and distorted imagery that makes them question everything. As the protagonist's mental state deteriorates, the lines between the observer and the observed blur, and the final revelation leaves the reader wondering if they're trapped in this madness alongside the character. A chilling psychological thriller, this book explores the nature of reality, self-awareness, and the terrifying idea that what you think you know may be nothing more than a reflection of something far darker.Complete
