Gerry Andersen, novelist, lies in a hospital bed after being injured in a freak accident. He is utterly dependent on two women, a young assistant and a night nurse whose competency he questions. Gerry is also beginning to question his own competency. As he moves in and out of dreamlike memories and seemingly random appearances of a persistent ex-girlfriend at his bedside, he fears he may be losing his grip on reality.
EadieB Is Gerry the victim of a cruel prank or is he actually losing his mind? This is a slow moving story which I found hard to get into. It was not easy to care about any of the characters either. Good writing but more action is needed in this story. A brief visit by Detective Tess Monaghan from Lippman's series was interesting. Also enjoyed the many mentions from movie and books. 3y
