Summary: All Sarah can remember is the hospital. She's been told she is undergoing treatment to erase painful memories, that she's being given a chance to start over. That doesn't explain the wariness of the nurses who seem to treat her like a dangerous animal. And it certainly doesn't explain the soldiers who burst into the hospital as Sarah is undergoing one of her final treatments. Soldiers who gun down staff, blow up rooms, and seem intent on hunting her down. She is in a fight for her life that she doesn't understand.
My opinion: Amnesia as a plot device is an old idea but each author seems to find a new approach. The nice thing here is that the reader finds out information right along with Sarah. This novel has a pretty solid cast of characters, some with complex motivations. While the plot gets a little muddy at times, it follows a largely sensible line of thought. Constant motion adds to the appeal here. A great action story.
