Imagine being scared of your own shadow...
False Memory is a chilling thriller of shadows, darkness and the mind. Perfect for fans of Stephen King and Richard Laymon.
Martie Rhodes, a happily married, successful video games designer, takes an agoraphobic friend to therapy sessions twice a week. Each trip is a grim ordeal, but the experience has brought the two friends even closer together.

Martie's husband, Dusty, loves her profoundly, and is desperate to understand the cause of her autophobia. But as he comes closer to the terrible truth, Dusty himself starts showing signs of a psychological disorder even more frightening than that afflicting Martie...

Zapewne nie wniosę w swoich wrażeniach nic, czego już o "Fałszywej pamięci" by nie powiedziano. Czytam książki odkąd pamiętam, a pierwszy raz spotykam się z taką wyobraźnią autora. Kilka razy odkładałam książkę, za pierwszym razem chciałam ją odrzucić i więcej do niej nie wrócić "co za nudy" stwierdziłam, jednakże dałam "jej drugą szansę" czego nie żałuję. Psychologia, programowanie, science-fiction, autofobia, manipulacja. Multum emocji w na pozór zwyczajnych bohaterach, którzy żyli swoim nudnym, rutynowym życiem. Z polecenia koleżanki. Polecam z czystym sumieniem. Coś mi się wydaje, że to nie będzie ostatnie moje spotkanie z twórczością Deana Koontza.
