Dr. Martin Alvarez never wanted to be on camera. He was supposed to be the quiet one the man behind the glass, the doctor summoned to observe, to measure, to put broken adolescence into neat reports. The Bureau called it clinical containment. He called it therapy. But nothing about these girls, this case, or this silence was containable.
Hannah's charm drew strangers to her feed like moths to a flame. Elena's ambition blurred into obsession. Camila vanished into silence so heavy it became its own brand. Noe's prayers spilled out in captions strangers twisted into mockery. Together, they weren't just girls they were content. Content that could be clipped, remixed, packaged, and sold.
Martin was meant to keep the distance. Write the notes. File the sessions. But distance collapsed the moment the DMs began arriving not just from the girls, not just from predators, not just from the Bureau's shadow accounts. From Maya.
His daughter.
The secret he'd kept from the Bureau and from the world became the infection bleeding through every page of his notebook. The voices he was paid to analyze started sounding like prophecy. The Bureau demanded results, the parents demanded answers, and the feeds demanded blood. Every session pressed him closer to the truth he had avoided his whole life: he could not separate the father from the doctor. He could not separate therapy from spectacle. He could not separate Maya from the case.
As captions twisted into scripture and silence was crowned like royalty, Martin was forced into an impossible choice: kneel to the machine and watch his daughter and the others consumed, or break the glass and sacrifice everything he had ever been.
This is not therapy. This is prophecy.
From Martin Gangley, author of more than forty psychological thrillers, comes the most devastating entry in the A.S.I.F. cycle a relentless descent into surveillance, parenthood, and silence weaponized.
For readers of The Silent Patient, 13 Reasons Why, and Sharp Objects, A.S.I.F. is both a father's confession and a daughter's coronation a reminder that the most dangerous words are the ones that never make it into the report, and that the line between doctor and witness is thinner than glass.
