Dana Nolan's life is turned upside down when she is kidnapped and tortured by a serial killer. She does survive her ordeal, but not without a traumatic brain injury. After ten months in the hospital, she has returned to her childhood home. Dana doesn't remember her time in the killer's hands. She also doesn't remember large portions of her past. When she remembers that her best friend, Casey Grant, disappeared seven years ago right after their high school graduation, Dana delves into the mystery of what exactly happened to her.

I've read many of Tami Hoag's suspense novels. This one is totally different than the others. Dana's brain injury has changed her from the girl who grew up in a small Indiana town. She sometimes uses the wrong words. She sometimes says the first thing that pops into her mind. She becomes obsessed with Dana's disappearance. Did she run away? Was she kidnapped by a deranged killer just like Dana was? Much of the book is Dana comparing herself, pre-injury versus post-injury. It was an interesting story, but I thought the suspense portion was lacking. My rating: 3.5 Stars.
