IF THE ONE THING YOU CAN TRUST IS YOUR MEMORY
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU FORGET?
A young woman, Jane O, arrives in a psychiatrist-s office. She-s been suffering a series of worrying episodes: amnesia, premonitions, hallucinations and an inexplicable sense of dread. But as the psychiatrist struggles to solve the mystery of what is happening in Jane-s mind, she suddenly goes missing. When she is found a day later, unconscious in a park, she has no memory of what has happened to her.
Are Jane-s strange experiences related to the overwhelm of single motherhood, or long-buried trauma from her past? Why is she having visions of a young man who died twenty years ago, who warns her of disaster ahead? Jane-s symptoms will lead her psychiatrist to question everything he once thought he knew . . .
Profound and beautifully written, THE STRANGE CASE OF JANE O. is a speculative mystery about memory, identity and fate, a mesmerising story about the bonds of love between a mother and child, a man and a woman, and the haunting, unexplained mysteries of the human mind.
