This is all that remains of Wellwood, a psychiatric hospital for the poor that burned to the ground decades ago. And it is here that Bell Elkins--prosecutor turned private investigator--makes a grim discovery while searching for a missing teenager: a dead body, marred by a ghastly wound that can only mean murder; Bell Elkins and Jake Oakes have hung out their shingle: BJ Investigations, LLC. When Amber Slight's body is uncovered face down in the West Virginia woods, near the ruins of Wellwood, a psychiatric hospital that burned down decades ago, they get their first real challenge. Most of the forensic evidence at the scene was destroyed by a week of rain. The mystery leads Bell and Jake to Wellwood's tangled history... and its dark legacy. -- adapted from jacket ER -
