An inventive and ambitious speculative courtroom thriller, Shutter Island meets The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle, takes readers on a thrilling journey into the depths of mystery and suspense.
Lila Dalton finds herself in a peculiar situation as she stares up at twelve strangers, each one waiting for her with an enigmatic gaze. Realizing that she is the one they have been waiting for, she is confronted with a chilling truth: she has no recollection of how she arrived at this courtroom. The man in the docks, accused of mass murder, is her client, and she is his barrister, but she cannot remember a single detail about the case.
Trapped on an isolated island hundreds of miles away from the UK, where the most severe crimes are tried, Lila finds herself in a race against time. The next plane out is days away, leaving her stranded and alone. But that's not all; she is being watched. Someone keeps breaking into her hotel room, leaving cryptic notes that threaten her with deadly consequences if she fails to get her client off the hook.
As Lila delves deeper into the case, she uncovers a web of lies and deceit that stretches far beyond the island. With each passing day, she becomes more and more convinced that her own identity is at stake. Can she win her case and solve the mystery of her own identity before it's too late?
This novel is a masterclass in storytelling, filled with intricate plot twists, memorable characters, and a suspenseful atmosphere that will keep readers on the edge of their seats until the very end. It is a must-read for anyone who loves a good mystery, and fans of Shutter Island and The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle will not be disappointed.
