The Patients: A dark and thought-provoking psychological thriller

By Charlotte Stevenson

They came seeking help. But not everyone can be saved.

When strangers Tess and Leah arrive at the private practice of renowned psychiatrist Dr Jenna O'Hara, both are desperate for support. But behind the calm of the consulting room, something far darker is taking shape.

Leah, now in her forties, is haunted by a childhood trauma she's never escaped. Whereas Tess, a successful social media influencer, insists she's simply burned out.

But not everyone is as they seem, and the next session is more dangerous than any of them could have imagined.

Soon, Tess and Leah are caught in something they don't understand - a labyrinth of revenge where past wounds and hidden motives collide. Someone is lying. Someone is dangerous. And someone is about to pay.

As the walls close in, the women are forced to confront a terrifying truth: when the real danger is sitting across the room, who will walk out alive?

The Patients is a gripping and unsettling psychological thriller about trauma, revenge and manipulation, perfect for fans of Gillian McAllister and Alice Feeney.
