Patient Twenty-Nine, or Jane, is within reach of her heart’s desire: a home outside of Soothing Hills Asylum, where she has been raised.Her sister Jules wants to take her in, and a man, Mason, is deeply in love with her and wants to care for her. But before Jane can leave, she must be examined by the Board of Lunacy. Jane is still hearing voices and songs from the cornfield outside the asylum, voices, and songs that tell her what she must do, and that no one else can hear. So, the Board may not allow her to leave.But the asylum is becoming more and more dangerous. Its lead alienist, Dr. Frost, has disappeared, there have been frightening sightings of a woman in white, running through the corn at night, and perhaps worst of all: lobotomized women from the asylum are turning up pregnant.Jane is desperate to get away and go to her new home. Mason and Jules only want to rescue Jane from the asylum.But there is a complication: for Jane, the voice in the corn calls. And she must obey.
