Book Description
Feet shuffling beyond his metal door blends with nightly screams from Room 5. Perfect at everything in life, being trapped inside the Asylum at Saint’s Hospital isn’t where Jacob imagined he’d spend his senior year. How dare people do this to him. His days are monotonous: go to a meal, see the doctor, and squeeze in some yard time, all of which is scattered between hours in a tiny cell waiting for someone else to decide his fate. Sessions with Dr. Forster are fine until a strange box is brought out and chords are attached all over Jacob’s body. Electric shocks are thought to be the cure but Jacob doesn’t feel cured. Instead, he struggles to hold onto the remaining pieces of himself and of Charlie as each zap takes a little more away. His saving grace is the three freaks he befriends in ASH. They protect him from the others and occupy the spaces left by the electricity. Dr. Grudzien waits in the shadows of ASH, a faceless person that everyone fears. Any resident Grudzien takes disappears permanently, but nobody wonders about it, because in ASH, you don’t wonder. Jacob’s life devolves into waiting for the rest of his memories to be stolen from him. His last memory of Charlie is fading.

But when Sammy eventually spills her story to Officer Borsch, he doesn't believe her. He treats her like some snot-nosed little kid. Well, Sammy's not going to stand for that. She's a snot-nosed seventh grader now, and she knows what she saw. And somehow she's going to prove it. The Sammy Keyes mysteries are fast-paced, funny, thoroughly modern, and true whodunits.
