Psychiatrist Claire Rossi seeks cases nobody else can treat—cases like her mother’s, whose misdiagnosis of schizophrenia and subsequent death inspired Claire’s career.

About the Author:

C.J. WeissC.J. Weiss loves hiking, board/video games, traveling, and obviously reading (particularly speculative fiction and some history). Trying out new stuff is his jam, so he figured why not spend a few years breaking into one of the world’s most competitive industries?

Weiss lives in Austin, TX. Amazing city, but he’s mainly there because he’d rather walk outside when its 110° than 50° Fahrenheit. Suffice it to say, he’s not moving up north anytime soon. He’s married to his high school sweetheart, “She’s amazing (duh).” They have two cats (mostly hers).
