Here is a book that kept my interest throughout, and to start with you think you are reading 2 seperate story lines about
two different girls. All skillfully merged to demonstrate the aftermath of being
attacked. In brief, a young girl is brutally attacked after a night out with friends. Feeling safe and happy in herself and the world she stops on her walk home to admire the stars when she is grabbed from behind by person unknown. The attack is so brutal that she blocks out all memory of it. Waking in the hospital, she slowly faces up to her injuries that not only leave scars but change her life forever. She comes to terms with her new self, but feels numb about her attack and
attacker. Happy in her oblivian, she is forced to face her demons when the attacker continues his rein of terror, the next girl and subsequent victims are killed. The police envolvement with this story is minimal other than to guide our lady to realise she needs to remember to stop the killings. Through the mists of memory she slowly recalls her attacker, the one specific memory is the song he recites during her vicious attack. Here comes the other story line, where our victim changes identy and posing as an author, seeks her own justice against her assailant, becoming parinoid in the process against discovery. After a few false and panicky starts she finally lets logic win in the end and lays the plan that will achieve the desired result. The way the story is woven between the identities and how it evolves to explain all is very well done and quite clever. From victim to heroine - does he get it in the end? Have a read and find out for yourself.
