MY REVIEW

Wow. I’m speechless. After finishing this book I know I’m going to struggle to give it the review it deserves. 

Usually I can blitz through a book pretty quickly. This took me extra time as I found the content heavy. Please don’t take that as a negative... I certainly didn’t. I found myself after reading a few chapters, closing my kindle and just thinking about the story, about the characters. 

This is the story of nine criminally insane patients in Dortmund Asylum. Dr. Magnus Paul must assess each of them and determine if they go to prison or get the death sentence. We hear each of their stories in their own words as they tell Magnus why they are in the asylum. As each day passes he struggles with what to believe and who to trust. 

This is one of those books I’d have loved to buddy read with as I needed to talk about it and didn’t want to spoil it for anyone. 

I’ve read many books but I know this book will stay with me for a long time. 

‘Their sickness was incurable’.
