Once, when I picked up a book from the local library, the librarian asked to tell her what I thought about the book when I would bring it back. Well, why not write a few lines about all the books I read so everybody could see what I thought about it? I'm often also happy to have friends recommend a certain book or tell me this and that is not really worth reading. I won't comment about the tons of books I have read so far, but about books I read from now on.

At first, and for a long time, the story is told in two separate streams, one being now, the other the past which leads to now. This is done in an excellent manner, giving the reader information bit by bit and keeping him or her in the dark about lots of things. This makes the book very interesting and leaves room for some unexpected turns.
It is hard to tell something about the contents without a spoiler, so I keep it to the bare minimum; for more, you will have to read the book, it's worth it. Kendall and her three month old baby boy miraculously survive a car crash mostly unscathed. Before the car is washed away by the river, she manages to pull out the badly injured driver, but not the other passenger. The driver can not remember anything, not even who he is. A great chance for Kendall to escape. But even though the driver has no memory, his instincts are still intact and on high alert...
