This ingenious and compelling thriller whose protagonist has lost his memory of the previous 18 months will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very last page.
This ingenious and compelling thriller by Charles Harris revolves around Ross Blackleigh, a detective inspector who has mysteriously lost his memory of the previous 18 months following some kind of altercation that leaves him with a head injury. Now on trial for murder, Blackleigh frantically attempts to piece together his own recent past while also trying to solve a murder mystery for which he now stands accused.
This is a fast-paced and gripping tale that is very deftly and eloquently penned. Harris gives us enough convincing detail when outlining his chief players without over-egging the pudding.
Difficult to predict, the narrative provides plenty of twists and turns, and the concluding pages are wonderfully dark.
‘Room 15’ is a very satisfying tour de force of a thriller with a very chilling and pitch-perfect crescendo of a last page. I, for one, thoroughly enjoyed the ride.
