The patient portal was the lifeline used by the staff at the Aegis Clinic. The elite psychiatric clinic in Chicago, near the windswept expanse of Lake Michigan, but overlooking the Chicago River. High-risk psychiatric outpatients answered random, intrusive questions daily. Failure to check in meant a swift descent into a chilling 72-hour psych hold in the clinic's psychiatric ward.

The portal is the brainchild of Doctor Aris Boerne, and built by his techy genius son, Julian Boerne. The clinic successfully used the digital portal to control patients who did not meet the criteria for involuntary commitment.

Then came that long, holiday weekend. Elena Clark, the on-call psychiatric nurse, noticed a disturbing pattern: a blip on her computer screen, and several high-risk patients missed their digital check-ins.

Soon, she would discover that someone inside the clinic weaponized the portal, transforming Chicago into a playground for programmed predators lurking in plain sight.The ticking of the clock seemed to amplify as the cold, sterile glow of the monitor reflected in Elena's eyes and the digital walls of the patient portal crumbled.

A flaw in the portal program? A high-tech glitch? Or a purposeful hacking of the system?

Elena's suspicions ran higher when the only person available to help her refused. Hunted by corrupt superiors, the CPD, and the FBI, Elena teams up with a rogue hacker and a volatile patient to expose the truth before Chicago becomes a battleground.

Venture into the Aegis Clinic and uncover the elusive 'ghost' within the digital framework of the portal. If you love psychological thrillers that explore the dark side of medicine and technology and the secrets hidden behind professional facades, this book was written for you.
