Whatever the causeand everyone has a theoryit's the Crime of the Decade when glamorous Georgia Cartwright, who was adopted as a newborn, is accused of killing the biological daughter of her wealthy, Southern family.
Georgia is locked in a psychiatric institution where the most violent offenders are held while she awaits trial. The only words she whispers when her estranged twin sister Amanda visits are, I didnt do it. Youve got to get me out of here.
Amanda doesn't trust Georgia, but she can't abandon her in a place so eerie and menacing that it seems to exist in another dimension. Is Georgia the victim of a powerful family that's so depraved murder is the least of their crimes Or is Amanda being led down a path of madness into the web of a master manipulator
Nothing is as it seems in Sarah Pekkanens The Locked Ward, a shocking psychological thriller about the complex bonds of sisterhoodand what happens when they are stretched to the breaking point.
Some doors in the Locked Ward should never be opened.
