Dappled Psychiatric D W Allen

Dr. Janus Phillips enjoys practicing psychiatry in a small Minnesota town until the weekend he hospitalizes three young patients: Tiffany, a sixteen year old suburbanite, Shauna, a seventeen year old orphan, and Francisco, a twenty-one year old immigrant. As the patients struggle with their personal challenges, Dr. Janus and his patients feel trapped by an inflexible and flawed mental health system. Humor, tragedy and a healthy dose of realism have Dappled Psychiatric asking the question: Can anyone get out of this happy and well?
