Mercy Cove

In the quiet coastal town of Mercy Cove, forensic psychologist Grace Pearson unravels a chilling mystery when a cryptic envelope reveals her name linked to missing psychiatric patients and a decades-old conspiracy. As she delves into the shadowy history of her mother's hospital, she discovers patient files tampered with, experimental drugs administered without consent, and a network of shell companies funneling millions to fund unethical trials. But the deeper Grace digs, the clearer the danger becomes: Someone is watching her, erasing evidence, and sending threats to silence her. When her investigation leads to a derelict warehouse filled with medical equipment and a journal detailing a patient's torment, Grace realizes the truth isn't just buried—it's been weaponized. Drawn into a labyrinth of lies, Grace uncovers her own childhood connection to the hospital's experiments, including a consent form she never signed and a missing patient whose fate mirrors her own. With the help of investigative journalist Michael Carter, she traces the corruption to influential figures like hospital director Eleanor Reed and psychiatrist Thomas Williams, whose motives intertwine with Grace's fractured past. But every clue raises new questions: Why were patients transferred to nonexistent facilities? Who authorized the experiments? And how is Grace's late father—a lawyer who once defended a whistleblower—connected to it all? As Grace races to expose the conspiracy, she becomes the hunter and the hunted. Break-ins, encrypted financial records, and a clandestine lighthouse meeting reveal a system built on exploitation, where power brokers manipulate memory and identity to protect their secrets. Yet the closer Grace gets to the truth, the more her own mind becomes a battleground. Vivid nightmares, fragmented memories, and a figure from her childhood haunt her, blurring the line between reality and the hospital's twisted science. When the final pieces fall into place, Grace faces a devastating choice: Let the past stay buried to protect her family's legacy or unleash a scandal that could destroy lives—including her own. But the cost of silence may be higher than she realizes. Turn the page to uncover the chilling truth behind Mercy Cove —where every secret is a thread, and pulling one unravels everything.
