The doctors were giving me the mushroom treatment - keeping me in the dark and feeding me bullshit. I didn't call them on the subterfuge because I just wanted out of the hospital ASAP, and that required making the people in charge think I was docile.

To protect the innocent, Clayton Fire Bear is the fake name I'll be using in this report.

I like the sound of this one - a strong narrative voice:). Are you enjoying it? My TT this week is another paranormal murder mystery, which is turning out to be great fun... https://sjhigbee.wordpress.com/2017/08/22/teaser-tuesday-22th-august-2017/
I like the sound of this one too.
I have a copy of the author's book The Silver Linings Playbook, which I haven't yet read. But I loved the movie.
So I like the sound of this one, too. Thanks for sharing, and here's mine: “THE GOOD DAUGHTER”
Sounds like an interesting book. I would definitely read on. My Teaser
