Summary

Young doctor Edie Carter is bright, talented and ambitious. She is embarking on 
her dream career in anaesthetics and is engaged to a man who adores her. The 
one thing she doesn’t have is a childhood. Suffering from traumatic repression, 
large parts of her past are blank spaces. 
 
When an unidentified patient arrives in her intensive care unit with her name 
carved on his body, she realises that memories can refuse to stay buried. The 
man is unknown to Edie, but digging deeper, she discovers that the patient is 
Samuel Cox, a man imprisoned and brutalised over the last two decades for 
horrifying crimes he had committed. 
 
As she investigates further, and begins to reveal Cox’s motives, Edie realises 
that even those she trusts have been complicit in deceiving her. 
 
With the lives of those closest to her at risk, is Edie ready for the truth of what 
happened all those years ago? And will she do whatever it takes to keep it hidden?
