Asylum opens with a young woman shooting her very young brother in the head.  She has a reason, but she doesn't really explain in right away. Annie Radford finds herself confined to the Lakehurst Psychiatric Hospital.  Lakehurst is a very very strange place.  Everyone sees the burned man on their 3rd night there. Although there's a doctor in charge, it's Nurse Winter that everyone fears.Asylum is 8 books each with it's own prologue, chapters and epilogue that tells a part of Lakehurst's story.  We see events through the eyes of several different characters including Annie, Nurse Winter, Jerry  the computer check and Morris the janitor.  The book is easy to read, the stories go by quickly, and it's creepy/interesting.  There were a lot of questions left unanswered, but I was ok with that - the main questions really weren't answered until book 8, but everything came together to a satisfying conclusion.
