Jane Whittaker has awakened to a nightmare. She doesn't know her name, her age . . .or even what she looks like. Frightened and confused, she wanders the streets of Boston wearing a blood-soaked dress-and carrying $10,000 in her pocket. Her life has become a vacuum—her past vanished. . .or stolen. And all that remains is a handsome, unsettling stranger who claims to be her husband, whispered rumors about a dead child whom she cannot recall. . .and a terrifying premonition that something truly horrible is about to occur.

See Jane Run
A decent premise - in many ways rather similar to BEFORE I GO TO SLEEP, but preceding it by a couple of decades. I'm a little choosy about my thrillers, and this one is fine in conception, though let down by flat and clunky prose. The third-person narration relies heavily on a very repetitive form of internal monologue, filled with rhetorical questions, which quickly becomes very tiresome: (Who was she? Was she crazy? Had she done something unspeakable? Why couldn't she remember things? Where was her daughter? How could she have forgotten her? Why write in the third person at all if you're going to adopt a running pseudo-commentary anyway, and how long would it take for the reader to start getting really tired of it?) The result is a heroine who comes across as quite passive and very dull, in spite of our being repeatedly told that she is feisty and independent. The other characters are similarly unconvincing - the jealous neighbour, the sinister cleaning woman, the suspiciously saintly husband. A little nuance wouldn't have hurt, and might have led to some actual thrills.
