The Patient Knows My Secrets

"I help people face their shadows. I never expected my own shadow to walk through the door and sit down."

Veronica has spent ten years building a fortress of professional success and personal atonement. As a therapist, she is the calm in the center of her patients' storms. But when Mason walks into her office, that fortress begins to crumble.

Mason doesn't just need therapy. He knows things he shouldn't—details about a decade-old case, words spoken in confidence, and the one mistake Veronica thought she'd buried forever.

What starts as a session becomes a dangerous game of blackmail and psychological warfare. As Mason begins to control the room, Veronica is forced into an impossible bargain. To protect her future, she must confront the grieving brother beneath the monster and decide if she has the courage to walk the hardest path of all: the one that doesn't promise redemption, only the truth.

In this claustrophobic psychological thriller, G.H. Arthur explores the terrifying power of secrets and the thin line between the healer and the broken.

The truth is not a destination. It is the road we walk when we finally stop running.
