Dr. Joanna Bereza, a psychiatric intern, risks her career when she tries to stop an arrogant psychiatrist from shocking her patients: a mute young mother suspected of trying to kill her baby and a feisty old woman, who's already been shocked too many times. Joanna's obsession to do what's right also blinds her to problems at home. Complicating matters is the seductive senior resident who looks more like a rock star than an aspiring shrink.
The Rubber Fence was inspired by the author's experience as a family therapist on a psychiatric ward.
