Sixteen-year-old Dan Crawford is an outcast hoping for a fresh start at the New Hampshire College Prep summer program, which he sees as a lifeline before college. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, students are forced to stay in the crumbling Brookline Dorm. Dan soon discovers that the dorm was formerly a sanatorium—a notorious asylum and a last resort for the criminally insane. As Dan and his new friends, Abby and Jordan, begin to explore the hidden recesses and forbidden areas of their creepy summer home, they uncover disturbing secrets about the dark past of the asylum and its most notorious patient, 'The Sculptor.' They soon realize that their presence is no coincidence, and the secrets they unearth link them directly to the institution's chilling history. The book, a thrilling and creepy photo-illustrated novel featuring unsettling found photographs from real abandoned asylums, follows Dan's descent into a mystery where the line between genius and insanity is constantly blurred, and some secrets simply refuse to stay buried.
