Description
When the secrets of his patients' minds are revealed to him, Professor Martin Sturrock is forced to confront his own demons. A psychiatrist with a troubled past, he has been hiding behind his work for years.
A chance encounter with one of his patients over a life-changing weekend sets off a chain reaction that exposes the darkest corners of his mind. As his ghosts come back to haunt him, Sturrock must turn to the very person who can help him find peace: a patient struggling to cope with their own traumas.
This gripping novel is a poignant exploration of the human psyche, delving into the complex relationships between doctor and patient. With compassion and insight, Alastair Campbell creates a story that is both a comedy and tragedy of ordinary lives.
