Synopsis/Details
Natalie Porter, a once-promising nurse, is sentenced to a remote addiction treatment center called Restoration House in lieu of prison time after spiraling into opioid abuse. Nestled on a cliffside and cloaked in serenity, the facility appears to be a sanctuary for healing—until Natalie begins to suspect something is deeply wrong. Under the watchful eye of the enigmatic Dr. Malcam and his unnervingly devout assistant Adena, Natalie is pushed through a rigid twelve-step program where "finding a Higher Power" becomes not just spiritual guidance, but a chilling demand. As Natalie endures grueling detox, strict controls, and invasive therapy, she begins experiencing terrifying visions of a ghostly woman who warns her: "You won’t see it coming." When fellow patient Grace mysteriously disappears and others exhibit strange behavior, Natalie suspects the program is hiding a dark secret. The lines between psychological trauma, supernatural warning, and institutional abuse blur as Natalie races to uncover the truth behind Restoration House and its twisted version of recovery—before she becomes its next lost soul. STEP SEVEN is a psychological horror-thriller about addiction, institutional control, and the terrifying cost of blind faith.

There is good news and bad news in that. The bad news of course is that I spent my life working at a career other than the one I wanted to have. The good news is that I garnered enough life experiences to make my writing more meaningful than it would have been as an eighteen year old. Despite starting late, I have enjoyed… Go to bio
