Maps of Hell

"I awake in a windowless room – naked, filthy, bruised, robbed of my every memory. I feel inexplicably drowned in a sea of hatred and rage. I... don't know who I am. But I know I must escape. " Crime writer Matt Wells could never have conjured a plot this twisted. A secretive militia running brainwashing experiments in a remote location have made him a subject. He knows they have been feeding him instructions, but why? Taunted by maddening snatches of a life he can't trust as his own – including memories of a woman he feels he should remember – Matt's accused of three gruesome murders. On the run from his kidnappers and the law, Matt must piece everything together – before it's too late. "Blood, gore and ingenious twists... I loved it. " Kate Atkinson "Johnston does an expert job... Great stuff. " Laura Wilson, Guardian "Fast, furious and twisted as hell. " Mark Billingham PRAISE FOR THE DEATH LIST AND THE SOUL COLLECTOR
