Oblivion

di Peter Abrahams (Autore)

William Morrow, 2009

Nick Petrov was a world-famous private investigator -- until a brain trauma destroyed part of his memory and changed who he is forever. Now a killer is on the loose, looming up from a past that Nick can no longer remember. Waking from brain surgery with two lost days wiped from his mind, he finds only the scattered remnants of an investigation he cannot recall taking. A missing teenager has vanished toward Barstow, leaving behind a coded notebook he can no longer decipher. The search pulls him into the Mojave desert, where the runaway's trail collides with the infamous serial-murder case that made his career. Every lead through the ghost town's ruins points back to an impossible truth, testing his unraveling mind at every turn. Memory Loss: Nick awakes from emergency surgery with glioblastoma multiforme, seven carmustine wafers embedded in his brain, and an estimated seventeen weeks left to piece together the case he accepted during two vanished days. Missing Persons: The only leads to Amanda Rummel are a signed volleyball and a torn greeting card. Serial Killers: A postcard of Rembrandt’s The Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Tulp links the runaway to Gerald Reasoner, the notorious murderer Nick helped send to death row twelve years earlier. Race Against Time: With ruthless pursuers dogging his steps from Venice to a ruined Mojave ghost town, Nick must uncover what happened before his failing memory closes for good. Also by This Author: End Of Story, Delusion and Nerve Damage.
