This is the first of the series of Darden Mental Hospital written by Douglas Clegg under the Harper name. This was very good and fast paced. Since I read this series backwards now some of the things make sense.
Okay, this book was not written yesterday, but WOW. It was so darn good! A lot on the graphic side. If you don't like blood and guts, do not order this book. The end of each chapter is a cliff hanger. Why didn't Harper write more books. DARDEN State Hospital is a place for the worst of the worst of the criminally insane. "Gorgon" escapes and goes on a spree. Don't miss this exceptionally well written book.
