Neverwas

Millwood Sanitorium. Autumn wind. A child's lost book. Dr. Zach Riley arrives for a job interview, though he knows the grim halls well. His famous father believed himself a hero from a fantasy realm, locked away for his own safety. A curious gloss on institutional dramas, post-One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.
