Recollection

What if you had a perfect memory? But every mundane or terrible thing you've seen or done was forever seared in your mind? Recollection follows Jeremy Peoples, a DC radio talk show host cursed with uncontrollably precise recall. Seven years after violence erupted at his school--and now nearly lost to a past that feels more vivid than the present--Jeremy is tormented by his belief that he escaped blame for the slayings. However, during a harrowing broadcast confessional to find forgiveness on the eve of a new millennium... ...a shocking turn of events lures Jeremy home to Wisconsin and once again, back into danger. A gritty psychological thriller, Recollection descends with Jeremy, grasping for redemption, before he succumbs to darkness, addiction, and the cat-and-mouse consequences of betrayal. Recollection (inspired by John Irving's "A Prayer for Owen Meaney") is for fans of unputdownable suspense who prefer emotional and spiritual depth in their thrillers--like Gillian Flynn's "Gone Girl," Dennis Lehane's "Mystic River" or "This is Where it Ends," by Marieke Nijkamp--and anyone who craves Historical Fiction set in the 1990s.
