Medical student Amy Brenner is spending the night on a locked psychiatric ward. Amy has been dreading her evening working on Ward D, the hospital's inpatient mental health unit. There are very specific reasons why she never wanted to do this required overnight rotation. Reasons nobody can ever find out. And as the hours tick by, Amy grows increasingly convinced something terrible is happening within these tightly secured walls. When patients and staff start to vanish without a trace, it becomes clear that everyone on the unit is in grave danger. Amy's worst nightmare was spending the night on Ward D. And now she might never escape. This is a light, fun and entertaining read with twists and turns that kept me reading until the very end. The story took place in one night as the hours were a count-down switching also from 8 years past to the present time. I love Freida McFadden books and I am trying to read all of them. So far I have read 8 books and loved them all. Some of the books are better than others but all of them have stellar writing. If you like a bit of humor with your reading then you will love this book!
