trilogía asylum 1 asylum

For Dan Crawford, the summer program for gifted students is a unique opportunity. His friends never understood his fascination with history and science. But at New Hampshire Preparatory School, those preferences are the order of the day. Upon arriving at the place, he finds that the residence he was supposed to go to has been closed, so all the students are forced to stay in Brookline, which used to be a psychiatric hospital.
When Dan and his new friends, Abby and Jordan, begin to explore the halls and the hidden basement of the place, they discover chilling secrets about what was really happening there. Secrets that link them to the dark past of the asylum. Brookline was never an institution for common mental patients: it housed both psychopaths and murderers, extremely dangerous subjects, and there are aberrant facts and practices that will come to light.
With shocking photographs of real asylums, Asylum takes the reader to the blurred boundaries between past and present, between friendship and obsession, between genius and madness. This story is a warning: the mind can play tricks when you enter an underworld where nothing is what it seems and you experiment with it. There will always be consequences and they will not be pleasant at all.
