Blackout — Stephen Edger
What if you woke with no memory of the last five years: would you believe what they were saying about you?
When a grizzled detective bursts into his room and cuffs him to the bed, Tom Hunter learns that he's wanted for murder. But he has no memory of how he got there or who he is supposed to have killed. Tom's business is gone, his wife has divorced him and has sole custody of a daughter he has no memory of.
He can't be the killer they're describing. Can he?
Learning that he is a senior figure in organised crime, Tom doesn't like the new version of himself. It's like a nightmare he can't wake from. And to make matters worse a Turkish gangster wants the diamond back that Tom stole; only Tom doesn't know where he hid the jewel.
With the police closing in, and danger at every turn, Tom must piece together the truth of what led to his waking in hospital. He needs to understand what he has forgotten, but more importantly why he has forgotten it; his and the lives of those he loves depends on it.
Told at a breakneck pace, Blackout will keep you guessing until the grisly end.
