Freida McFadden has an impressive resume and has written a lot of books that have been big sellers. The New York Times, Amazon, USA Today and others have acclaimed her work for having #1 sellers on their lists. That is part of the reason I wanted to read "Ward D," a story about a medical school student who had to do an overnight rotation in the psych ward at the hospital. But when Amy arrives and feels the door to Ward D lock behind her, strange things start to happen and people start to disappear. The book is supposed to be a psychological thriller, but I found it utterly impossible to believe that the tales in Ward D would ever happen in a hospital. I know that it's a work of fiction -- but that wasn't enough to find it believable.
