I came across The Patient by Scott Griffin on the free offers on Kindle today. Looks like a gripping thriller - perfect for Linwood Barclay fans.

Jon wakes up alone in a hospital. Except he doesn’t remember that his name is Jon.

He doesn’t remember anything about who he is or how he ended up in hospital. Or why he no longer has the use of his legs.

He is completely isolated in his room - with only his nightmares to keep him company.

He is visited by the doctor and the nurse and even a detective. But no one will explain to him what happened or when he will be released.

Fitted with a back brace, Jon is shackled to his hospital bed.

He soon realises that without his memory he is powerless.

On top of everything, there are strangers in the dark, eerie noises and mysterious people walking the halls.

Are they all watching him?

Is he being held prisoner, or is he being paranoid?

And when he finally discover the truth about why he is in hospital, will he be able to handle it?

See You in a Minute: A Mother's Journey Through the First Year of Grief

http://www.amazon.co.uk/See-You-Minute-Mothers-ebook/dp/B00A3H57CG/ref=sr_1_1?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1379425277&sr=1-1&keywords=see+you+in+a+minute

"Is he hurt? Well, he's not dead, is he?". . . The thing that I feared the most happened: I lost my child. My world was thrown off balance. Each day became an awful nightmare from which I couldn’t wake up. On April 20th, 2006, a small plane crashed near Bloomington, Indiana. My son, Zachary Novak, was among the five fatalities; all talented musicians, students of the Jacobs School of Music at Indiana University. The grief of losing a child is still with me; however, over time I have learned, to some degree, to cope with this grief—and more importantly, how to remember and celebrate the life of my son. It is my hope and prayer that those who read this book will find solace and better understand grief. See You in a Minute is the chronological passage of that first year of pain. The book is guided by music, with songs serving as title and focus of chapters. I describe what I went through during that first year, along with reflections on his life and the many people he touched, including Christian music legend, Sandi Patty, who has provided the foreword. Life flies by at breakneck speed. We may just see those we have lost . . . in a minute.

SPIKED - The story of a woman drugged with GhB and how she was turned into a criminal

http://www.amazon.co.uk/SPIKED-drugged-turned-criminal-ebook/dp/B00BPFWZIE/ref=sr_1_1?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1379426604&sr=1-1&keywords=spiked

The author takes you with her on her race for survival through a bizarre world of manipulative conspirators. Written so realistically, that you can't believe she didn't go through this herself. Is she trying to expose a crime?" When asked all she will say is "That is for you to decide."

Employing the notorious GhB a drug that can virtually turn anyone into a willing slave, combined with the potentially lethal power of hypnosis, gang stalkers on two continents, the latest technology for monitoring and recording all voyeuristic activity, these outwardly "respectable" criminals send her on a journey into a 21st century hell which defies imagination, gravely endangering her physical and mental health and leaving her destitute.

Even while she is still outwardly compliant, she begins to understand that something is very wrong in the way she feels and what is going on around her. How does anyone survive such an ordeal? What are the effects on the victims of mind altering and so called “truth” drugs? How does a woman caught in the net of gang stalkers escape? How does she rebuild her life and start the process of seeking justice against the perpetrators?

Her only weapon is her continuity trained memory. Over the three months she was drugged, she mentally kept track of everything that happened like a continuity girl on her own nightmare. As she battles with the withdrawal from the forced addiction, the hundreds of pages she has mentally written down float around in front of her. In a race against time, she has to pick up the pages, number them and turn them into a book as fast as possible. This is her story.

From Green to Blue - 346 pages

Orphaned at eighteen, a naïve and solitary Chris Pritchard joins the
Metropolitan Police in search of a family, friends and a regular income.

Despite barely concealed contempt for her hapless new charge, his experienced
instructor WPC Dawn Matthews puppy walks him through a journey which is
regularly amusing, frequently sad and occasionally bizarre.

On his last day of training, their growing friendship is put to the ultimate
test.

From Green to Blue is told with a deference to realism which draws the reader
into a murky world where the planting of evidence and perverting the course of
justice are simply tools to oil the wheels of justice; and brutality and
corruption are persistent if unwelcome companions.

The next book in the Trilogy, From Black to Blue, sees Christopher caught up
in an maelstrom of police corruption; this is available to purchase on my
author's page.

The author is a police officer who has served with the Met for over thirty
years. Having walked the beat in the early eighties in some of London’s most
fractious communities, he worked on a variety of specialist teams dealing with
murder, fraud, witness protection and surveillance before becoming responsible
for investigating the most serious cases of police corruption.

the shadows of global security inhabited by intelligence operatives and

intrigue, the comradeship of veterans binds together a group of men fighting a

mass destruction.
