PANS, Medical Kidnap Files

Michael Young used to be funny. He used to be easy. He used to come downstairs for dinner without counting every step.

That was before.

Now he's thirteen, thirty pounds underweight, and convinced he is going to choke to death on a mouthful of mashed potatoes. His brain won't stop. His body won't cooperate. And when he collapses in the middle of English class, the seizure that lands him in hospital is only the beginning of his problems.

Because the people who are supposed to help him have decided they already know what's wrong. And what's wrong, they believe, is his mother.

A gripping YA medical thriller about a system that fails the children it was intended to protect.

Perfect for readers who love:

- YA psychological suspense with real-world stakes

- Medical mysteries and misdiagnosis thrillers

- Stories of teens fighting unjust systems

- Emotional, issue-driven thrillers without the gore

A page-turning suspense novel filled with twists, urgency, and the fight for truth against impossible odds.
