The story follows the life of a young man named John Prentiss, who, after a series of unfortunate events, feigns insanity to avoid being sent to prison. He is committed to a mental institution, where he meets a diverse cast of characters, including a beautiful young woman named Alice, who becomes his love interest.As John struggles to maintain his facade of insanity, he must navigate the dangerous and unpredictable world of the asylum, where he is constantly under scrutiny from the staff and other patients. Along the way, he uncovers a sinister plot involving the head of the institution and must work to expose it before it’s too late.Simulated Insanity is a gripping tale of deception, intrigue, and romance set against the backdrop of a mental institution in the early 20th century. Mills’ vivid descriptions and well-drawn characters make for a compelling read that will keep readers on the edge of their seats until the very end.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
