A near-fatal car accident left Jane Halifax in a coma, and when she wakes, she has no idea who she is...Initially comforted by unlikely specters of past cases, Jane has no memory of the accident and is unaware of everyone else’s concerns: the police, who believe she was deliberately run off the road; the lawyer, whose files were in her car at the time of the accident—files he never should have given her; her neurosurgeon, who fears a relapse; and her partner, Tim, who is slowly realizing Jane remembers nothing of the last two years—including their relationship.

The victim, a billionaire mogul and art collector, was found oddly arranged and impaled on a priceless statue featured prominently in the large estate’s foyer. The perpetrator left nothing behind, and the scene gives no clues as to who might have committed such a cruel and strangely ritualistic act.
