以出道作Don’t Wake Up走紅的懸疑小說作家Liz Lawler,再次以讓讀者忍不住想要一口氣讀完的小說回到文壇,將自己過往的護士經驗加入故事中,精彩程度超越前作,讓人心跳加速的劇情一路直飆到最後一刻。
Emily Jacobs wakes up in the night after a minor operation, woozy with anaesthetic. She sees the doctor frantically trying to resuscitate the woman in the bed next to her.
In the morning, she is told that she must have had a nightmare.
That the bed has been empty all along . . .
When Emily returns to her work as a nurse, she discovers a bracelet that she believes belonged to the missing woman. She becomes convinced the people at the hospital are hiding a terrible secret.
What if she's right?
What else could they be capable of?
