A Boston psychiatrist must confront her own inner demons in a novel that “peels away the layers of what can be known and what can be admitted” (Stuart Archer Cohen, author of The Army of the Republic).
Dr. Regina Moss is a dedicated healer with a reputation that inspires colleagues and patients alike. Yet Regina is haunted by her past. Her daughter barely speaks to her. And she can’t stop thinking about the lanky new tech on the ward.
Grief and trauma simmer just beneath Regina’s brash attitude and biting wit. But as her armor begins to crack, the reader is drawn deep into her troubled psyche. Full of startling revelations and heartrending twists, An Age of Madness is “a confidently rendered portrait of one woman’s journey to recover from loss” (Foreword Reviews).
