A gothic romance about love, obsession, and institutional power.
Dr. Larissa Claremont arrives in the rural Canadian institution believing in progress, structure, and the promise of modern medicine. When she is assigned the case of one Adrien Daniel Vaillancourt, a patient deemed clinically insane in the wake of the murders of his wife and best friend, she expects to find resistance, instability, and detachment. What she finds instead is far more dangerous: a lucid, intelligent, and charming man who watches her nearly as closely as she watches him.
As their sessions deepen, the boundaries between doctor and patient begin to erode. Institutional protocols tighten, and the quiet routines of the asylum begin to reveal themselves as something far more insidious.
Set in the 1940s, ASYLUM is a dark gothic romance that explores obsession, control, and the dangerous comfort of believing we know what is best for those we claim to save.
Some doors, once opened, cannot be closed.
