Waking in the hospital with no memory, Emma learns her seemingly happy life story from her powerful, seductive husband only to experience tormenting dreams that suggest a completely different past shaped by war, a camp where girls are trained to be wives and her love for another man. A first novel.

Very good post-apocalyptic style novel centered on the story of one woman and her attempt to decipher her vaguely remembered past. Reminded me a bit of S J Watson's “Before I Go to Sleep” in terms of an amnesiac woman struggling to come to grips with what is going on around her and convinced that she is being lied to. Worth reading. This is the first of a two-part series. The second book, Prototype, comes out in July 2014.
