Publisher Description
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.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
A psych ward is a scary place in this dark thriller—especially when you can’t tell who should be there and who shouldn’t. Med student Amy Brenner is understandably rattled when she’s assigned an overnight shift in the psych ward. Not only will a dangerous patient be checked in, but she was traumatized in that very ward as a teen while visiting her friend Jade, who’s still a patient there. As the night goes on, the line between patients and doctors begins to blur, threatening Amy’s sanity…and maybe even her life. As a real-life doctor herself, Freida McFadden brings plenty of experience to her highly suspenseful tale. Narrator Leslie Howard deftly depicts each character’s varying and sometimes deceptive level of sanity, from a highly respected doctor to a guy who thinks he’s Spider-Man. Ward D is the kind of taut listen that will have you sleeping with the lights on.

It’s not often I find a book in which I can’t see the plot and subsequent ending coming early on, although this one did just that. My only complaint & it’s a very silly one, which has no baring on the quality of the story or writing, is that the character refers to a dirty chai as a chai tea latte. I know most people say it this way but chai literally means tea. So you’re basically saying tea tea latte 😅. Like I said, it’s a silly thing, just a tiny pet peeve my neurodivergent brain can’t handle lol 😅😅😅
Fantastic book however & I will recommend it 🥰 I’m definitely interested in the authors other works 💙
