Lovereading view...
A romantic suspense novel with plenty of mystery. An amensiac is admitted to hospital after being injured and is treated by a young psychiatrist, Dr Elizabeth Santer who supports him despite the police believing that he is a terrorist. It's well written with great characters but definitely for readers who are after a more fun thriller.
Synopsis
By Any Name by Katherine John
A bloodstained man runs half naked down a motorway at night dodging high-speed traffic - and worse. Cornered by police, admitted to a psychiatric ward suffering from trauma-induced amnesia, all he can recall is a detailed knowledge of sophisticated weaponry and military techniques that indicates a background in terrorism.
When two armed soldiers guarding his room are murdered and Dr Elizabeth Santer, the psychiatrist assigned to his case, is abducted at gunpoint a desperate hunt begins for a dangerous killer.
Terrorist? Murderer? Kidnapper? Thief? Whatever he is, he remembers a town in Wales and it is to Wales he drags Elizabeth Santer with the security forces in all-out pursuit. There, a violent and bloody confrontation exposes a horrifying story of treachery and political cover-up. Is Elizabeth in the hands of a homicidal terrorist or an innocent pawn? Her life depends on the right answer.
