This is a heavy psychological novel about everyone's inner life! It narrates the three-day experience of Thomas Horton, an intern psychiatrist, working as an intern psychiatrist in a psychiatric hospital. During these three days, the patient he diagnosed was hit and killed by a mail truck the next day. Was this an accident, or did it involve the suicide of the patient who made the wrong diagnosis? An attractive female patient with borderline personality disorder strips off her clothes during talk therapy. How will Holden respond to this sudden and seductive behavior? New patient Richard Mobin is another paranoid schizophrenic who drowns birds and believes men in raincoats will murder him.
