About this listen

‘Deliciously dark and utterly compelling – I couldn’t put it down.’ – CLARE MACKINTOSH

They’re locked up for your safety. Now, you’re locked in with them.

How do you find a murderer in a prison full of killers?

On a locked ward in the world’s highest-security prison hospital, a scream shatters the night.

A nurse has been murdered and her daughter has been taken.

And with only five days to find the girl, the clock is ticking for Dr Connie Woolwine to find a killer hiding in plain sight…

Welcome to The Institution. The locked room thriller readers don't want to leave.

Critic Reviews

"Brilliant! The Institution is a harrowing, nonstop story that will grab you from the first page and not let go. You’ll consume it in one sitting." (Bestselling sensation Jeffery Deaver)

"Quite simply, wow! One of the best high concept thrillers I've read in forever. I can't decide which is my favourite character, Dr. Connie Woolwine, or the Institution itself."( New York Times bestseller Lisa Gardner)

"Dark and atmospheric with some brilliantly horrific characters and some excellent twists. Compelling and unputdownable." (Catherine Cooper)

Gripping story - highly recommended

Really good story, kept me guessing throughout. Loved the central character and setting - very interesting. Performance was really good too.
