Someone wants Chloe Benson out of the picture, she's sure, but who? and why? Or is she being paranoid and just imagining everything? This is a psychological journey into her mind as she tries to put together all the pieces that will give her the answers she needs.
The story starts with some very claustrophobic scenes. Chloe wakes up and finds herself bound and in complete darkness. She has pains all over her body. She doesn't know where she is and doesn't remember how she finished there. After a lot of struggle, despair and much determination she makes it out of the underground trap in which she was and runs for her life through the woods.
She then finds herself in hospital being treated for dehydration and shock. She knows that someone kidnapped her. After being questioned by doctors and the police, she realises that she has lost her memory. She knows who she is but she can't remember anything that happened in the last few weeks.
Having previously suffered from depression and hallucinations, no one believes her story. They are convinced that Chloe has imagined everything. That this is another story lived only in her mind, maybe triggered by some reaction to the medicine she was taking. But Chloe knows that she didn't imagine her ordeal; she knows she's not mad, does she?
With her memory loss, having no support from anyone and suspicious of everyone, including her husband Liam, Chloe is on her own but determined to dig deep in her quest to find the truth. But will she make it on time before whoever kidnapped her last time returns to complete the deed? Or is everything only in her mind?
This is a terrific story, full of twists and turns as the author skilfully unwraps the mystery little by little. I really enjoyed reading this Sibel Hodge thriller and am looking forward to read more from this talented author.

I don't remember reading any of the books written by this author before and I am certainly going to read more of her books. This was very suspenseful and everyone was a suspect until the end. Wow. I enjoyed the story very much.

I bought the audio upgrade for this book and my husband and I loved it. Only problem is we wasted a lot of gas driving around because we didn't want it to end. Sibel Hodge is a great writer. We will definitely buy more of her books.

Just couldn't put it down what a story! It is so realistic I only hope the author did not go through what the story was about. It was written so well it's almost as if she had. Will read any and all she has.

This is my first 'read' by Sibelius Hodge. I thought the plot was well planned out and concise. If I sometimes felt frustrated -- it was only because she wove the character of Chloe as a likable person -- and I SO wanted Chloe to remember everything and find the answers she was looking for !! A good read.

Chloe has amnesia and all things point to an adverse drug reaction. Unfortunately things do not add up. Suspicions abound. Whats the truth? Well written and entertaining story that keeps you guessing, right up until the terrifying end.

Wow, what a twisting plot. The characters were so well written it seemed like I knew them! If you like a read that will keep you on the edge of your seat then you should definitely read this book.

I just wanted to warn people. When a book is revised, usually the number is changed, which I didn't realize. I buy a lot of books, and when you try to purchase it, they will tell you if you already have it, but NOT if it is revised and they change the number. I bought the same book twice through my own fault. Like I say, I buy many books, and realized when I started to read it that it sounded familiar. I'm just trying to save someone from doing the same thing. If it's revised, check and make sure you don't have it.

my expectations were apparently too high. The plot seemed interesting enough initially, however, the writing and character development deteriorated as the story progressed. While I was waiting for some kind suspenseful twist, what I got was a stereotypical victim story with the standard white knight, damsel in distress ending. This book took predictability to a whole new level.
