I needed to talk to someone about all of this. About my grief and my hallucinations. I needed answers. I realized there was someone in the hotel who could help. Dr. Eve Brier—author, philosopher, and psychiatrist—was downstairs, and according to Tai, she knew me, even though I didn’t know her. I wanted to understand how that was possible. “Don’t you know her?” “No.” “Well, that’s strange. She told me she picked the hotel on your recommendation.”
