Items related to The Asylum
A young woman wakes in a strange bed.
A sickly light filters through a metal grille.
Doctor Maynard Straker steps into the room, and speaks.
‘Have no fear, Miss Ashton. I am entirely at your service.’
This, however, is not her name.
And she should not be here – in the Asylum.
She is Miss Georgina Ferrars, and she can prove it.
But when Dr Straker sends a telegram to her uncle in London, the reply is swift:
GEORGINA FERRARS HERE STOP
YOUR PATIENT MUST BE IMPOSTER STOP
Madness? Mistaken identity? Or are there more malevolent forces at work?
