About this listen
Psychological Medical Thriller
Sadie had always been one to care for others, but when her father's illness ended tragically—something inside her changed. Now working in a local pharmacy, she watches Ryan, a former college classmate, struggle with the weight of his own mother's suffering. Overhearing his heartache sparks a twisted idea in Sadie's mind - an idea that she can't seem to shake. What starts as an obsession to ease his pain soon spirals into a dangerous game of morality and control.
As Sadie grapples with the line between, mercy and murder, her chance encounter with Ryan forces her to face the darkest parts of herself. With a bottle of Stong medicine hidden in her pocket and an eerie sense of purpose, she is determining to give Ryan what she believes he needs: a way to end the pain. But when Ryan confronts her with an unthinkable request, the true cost of her actions comes to light.
TRIGGER WARNINGS:
- Assisted death
- Substance misuse
- Mental health struggles (grief, guilt, obsession)
- Ethical dilemmas around life and death
Prepare for a chilling journey through the fragile lines of compassion, control and the lengths one person will go in order to help... or harm.
