Críticas:

ENGRAM: 'Redolent of Highsmith, this is a taut, well-orchestrated piece' The Times
'Vivid and frightening...an intelligent thriller' The Times Literary Supplement
'Keith Baker burst on the literary scene in 1996 with the wonderful Inheritance, an imaginative thriller...that novel revealed Baker to be a writer with a strong gift for story-telling and a sharp eye for detail. He has continued in the same vein with his third novel, Engram... In a genre where cliche often predominates, Baker shows that he can write strong, clean, fluid English and his dialogue is authentic. A joy to read for any thriller buff' Eugene McEldowney, Irish Times

Vivid and frightening...an intelligent thriller (TLS)

Keith Baker burst on the literary scene in 1996 with the wonderful INHERITANCE, an imaginative thriller... That novel revealed Baker to be a writer with a strong gift for story-telling and a sharp eye for detail. He has continued in the same vein with his third novel, ENGRAM... In a genre where cliche often predominates, Baker shows that he can write strong, clean, fluid English and his dialogue is authentic. A joy to read for any thriller buff (Eugene McEldowney, IRISH TIMES)

'A gripping thriller...Baker's characters are frighteningly credible and the cliffhanger chapter endings ensure you are burning the midnight oil until the heart-stopping conclusion' Manchester Evening News [Reckoning]

Reseña del editor:

After four years in a coma following a near-fatal car crash, Meg Winter suddenly, miraculously, regains consciousness. But as she begins to pick up the pieces of her life, one area of the past remains a mysterious, impenetrable blank. She has no memory of the crash, no idea how she came to be in a car with a man whose name means nothing to her - and no idea why he was murdered at the roadside while she was left for dead. But someone, it seems, is very concerned that her memories might return. Suddenly Meg finds herself in a deadly race against time to solve the mystery of that fateful night four years ago and discover why her memories are so dangerous - before someone puts her back to sleep forever.
