Publisher's summary

Haunted by her dreams...

Kathi Ellison is an English literature major at the University of California in Berkeley, living with her boyfriend off-campus. She is also the daughter of a candidate for the US Senate and his wife, a role that could affect her life should her father win the election. But before she can consider her future, Kathi must first come to terms with her past. A car accident when she was four years old killed her mother and left her in a coma for several days. The migraines and nightmares that plagued her as a child have recently returned with a vengeance, leaving her mind full of visions that feel more like memories. Memories that are not her own. Memories of a frightened and traumatized child named Sheri Walker. Memories linked to her mother's death that her stepmother doesn't want her to remember.

Boring to the ridiculous

I usually like Joann Fluke novels but from the beginning of this book I was bored. I kept listening thinking it would improve but I was wrong. The ending was a huge disappointment. I also don’t know why, since this book took place in the U.S. they chose a reader with a British accent.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
