Psychiatrist Stephen Seager was no stranger to locked psych wards when he accepted a job at California's Napa State hospital, known locally as 'Gomorrah', but nothing could have prepared him for what he encountered when he stepped through its gates. Napa State is one of the nation's largest forensic mental hospitals, dedicated to treating the criminally insane. Behind the Gates of Gomorrah affords an eye-opening look inside a facility to which few people have ever had access. Honest, reflective and at times darkly funny, Seager's gripping account of his experiences at Napa State hospital give us an extraordinary insight into a unique and terrifying world, inhabited by figures from our nightmares.
