“Quite simply, wow! One of the best high concept thrillers I've read in forever. I can't decide which is my favourite character, Dr. Connie Woolwine, or the Institution itself. From the opening chapter, I raced through this riveting thriller in a single, breathless session of oh-my-God-what-is-going-to-happen-next.” – New York Times bestseller Lisa Gardner “A wonderful, compulsively gripping rollercoaster of a read.” – Liz Nugent “Helen Fields can always be relied on for a storming read, but this race against time through a world of locked rooms, dark tunnels and even darker minds is one of her absolute best.” — Alex Marwood “Deliciously dark and utterly compelling – I couldn’t put it down.” — Clare Mackintosh “Absolutely AMAZING. Tense, engrossing and gripping with a truly unique main character in profiler, Connie Woolwine.” – Angela Marsons “An intense, fast paced, locked room thriller. A brilliant concept which kept me guessing right until the end. Fields is at the top of her game.” – John Marrs “Brilliant! The Institution is a harrowing, nonstop story that will grab you from the first page and not let go. You’ll consume it in one sitting.” – Bestselling sensation Jeffery Deaver
