      Inside one of the world's most secure institutions for the criminally insane, a pregnant nurse is murdered, her baby violently birthed, abducted, and held for ransom. Knowing that the newborn only has days to live without medical treatment, forensic psychologist Dr. Connie Woolwine is brought in to solve the case, undercover, while the clock counts down. The institution is filled with many inmates accused of heinous crimes, but in her study of their lives, Connie begins to wonder if some staff are also capable of monstrous behavior. As the walls of the claustrophobic hospital seemingly tighten their grip, Connie questions her own sanity and finds enemies as well as allies in surprising places. The Institution is filled with many twists and turns, although it does overly rely on a few tired tropes and plot devices to sustain tension and draw the reader to the inevitable conclusion. Despite this, the second book in Fields' Dr. Connie Woolwine series (after The Shadow Man, 2021) will be popular with consumers of twisted and dark psychological thrillers.
