Before I go to sleep S.J.Watson


Imagine waking up every morning remembering your life 20 years ago but nothing since. You don't recognise the man in bed next to you, the house you live in or what happened yesterday.

Each morning the man lying next to her tells Christine he is her husband Ben, and she had an accident 20 years ago resulting in an amnesia that means each morning when she wakes, her memory is wiped clean.



Through entries Christine makes daily in a journal, and the help of a neurosurgeon who calls her daily to remind her of her journal, the past 20 years are slowly pieced together.

This first novel is not your usual fast paced thriller, but instead slowly reveals that all is not as it seems in Christine's life, past or present.
