This is the first of David Rosenfelt's books that I've read that is not a part of his popular, Andy Carpenter series, best known for it's light hearted love of dogs. While I have enjoyed that very much, when you want a more intense & exciting story, you must read this one. It's complete surprise will bring you hours of trying to figure out what this world is coming to, with all the all the high technology & plenty of people smart enough & very willing to figure out how to apply it is so many in-godly ways, on other human beings, all for the glory of $$$$! It's not at all hard to realize that something like this could be happening for real. First Sentence: The moment we met is burned into my mind, and even now, I reply it over and over.Magazine writer Richard Kilmer travels with his fiancée Jennifer Ryan to meet her parents. On the way, a storm causes Richard to lose control of his car, rolling it into a ditch. Although he is apparently unconscious only a brief time, Jennifer has disappeared. Not only is no sign of her found, but there’s no sign she ever existed. He does, however, meet Alison Tynes, a woman who looks identical to Jennifer and whose twin sister, Julie, is also missing.Numerous authors have tried this premise and it is one I do find intriguing. However, I’ve never yet found an author that carries it off effectively. Certainly this one didn’t. The story became only more farfetched with every chapter and I gave up in fairly short order.

Good start but trailed off at the end. Interesting concept on memory control or change.
