A twisty psychological thriller with "the ingenious structure and
leaps in time and memory of a Christopher Nolan movie" from an
award-winning director (Camden New Journal).
Ross Blackleigh is on trial for four crimes which he insists he didn't
commit. A detective inspector and a thoughtful self-reflective man, he
goes against his counsel's advice and takes the stand in court.
This is his story.
Ross found himself wandering the streets one night, bleeding from the
head and unable to remember the past year and a half. But before he
could make sense of it, he was summoned to a crime scene where a nurse
had been brutally murdered.
His amnesia unnerved him and, fearing the worst, Ross allowed himself to
be taken to hospital, only to be viciously attacked by a stranger with a
knife.
Suspecting that the attack was connected with the nurse's murder and
that his own police colleagues were behind it, Ross set out on two
parallel investigations: one into the killing and the other into his own
mind.
But when he digs into his own psyche, he is scared by what he finds . .
.
Is Ross being set up or is something far more disturbing behind the
killings?
"Profoundly creepy in the best way, and the desperation of the haunted
protagonist makes it a compellingly nightmarish journey." --Life in
Sci-Fi
"These changes of gear, the mix of brutal realism and a sense of darker,
inexplicable forces are what give Room 15--I won't reveal the
significance of the title--its power, as the novel hurtles back to the
courtroom and the jury's verdict." --Camden New Journal
