Room Fifteen

A gripping psychological thriller:

A murder he can't remember. A truth he might not survive.

On trial for murder, Detective Inspector Ross Blackleigh has only one defence: finding the truth hidden in his own mind.

Struck down with amnesia, Ross stands accused of crimes he himself was investigating. Is he guilty or has he been framed? With both his freedom and sanity on the line, he risks all and takes the stand, determined to unlock his lost memories and save himself.

Eighteen months are missing from Ross's life. A mystery that starts with his own footprints, wandering through dark streets in a snowstorm. Leading to the body of a nurse, savagely murdered. A crime scene he's sure holds the key to repairing his faulty brain. But fragmented clues blur the line between reality and nightmare.

When he's attacked hours later by a stranger with a knife, Ross becomes convinced he's on the trail of a dark conspiracy with links to the force he's served loyally for years. With the trap closing in on him, he races to uncover the truth before he himself is killed.

But what if the truth he's desperate to uncover is even worse that he feared?

Room Fifteen is a compelling crime novel. If you like psychological mysteries, police under stress and the dark streets of a wintry London, then you'll love Charles Harris's ingenious and twisty thriller that will grip you to the last page.
