Set against the backdrop of the Alberta Hospital Ponoka, the narrative explores the intersection of personal and institutional histories from 1911 onwards. The facility, once the largest psychiatric institution in Alberta, is intricately linked to Jack Martin's life, as his father worked there. This connection provides a unique lens through which to examine the complexities of mental health care and its impact on the community and individual lives over the years.

So when Max Renn saw the flesh of his stomach swell and redden as though a giant worm was moving beneath the skin, was that imagination—or reality? And when the skin split and the flesh parted like giant lips, soft and bloodied. When he could sink his fingers, his whole hand, deep inside, feeling and probing through the wall of his own stomach. As the juices, thick and warm, clung and sucked gently at his finger-tips, drawing him in. As the bile rose, hot with revulsion in his throat.... Was that a nightmare—or reality?
