Lethal Cure
Glen Apseloff. Amazon Digital Services, $2.99 e-book (353p) ISBN 978-0-9898461-9-6
Shortly after an injured girl dies at Dr. Jake Warner's hospital, leaving behind a strange diary and many unanswered questions, the doctor discovers he's suffering from memory loss. A few days later, he wins a free trip to Europe, and while the holiday comes with some curious restrictions, he accepts, bringing the mysterious diary with him. While Warner enjoys the trip, he can't shake the feeling that something is terribly wrong, and that somehow it's related to his memory loss and the diary. This medical thriller is chock-full of fascinating ideas—memory erasure, memory transfer, the military applications of memory—that will hook readers almost immediately. Unfortunately, the novel's structure and plotting are less successful: engaging plot threads are dropped and the narrative wraps up too quickly. Still, if readers can look past these problems, they will find a lot to like.
