My first impression is one of wonder. I love the author's use of words, such as "spitting rain" and "shock pins me in place" and " it's some minutes before the fear thaws sufficiently for me to move." This is a haunting beginning to a book about a man who wakes with his memory lost, among strangers in a dark and isolated place where a murder has just happened. That is his only memory.

"I can sense my memories just out of reach. They have weight and shape, like shrouded furniture in a darkened room. I’ve simply misplaced the light to see them by."

I can't wait to see what is in store for Evelyn Hardcastle.
