And then she is gone. I lean forward and touch her face on the TV screen. The evening sunlight catches her long blonde hair, turning the strands to threads of true gold. Her laughter always makes me smile, as though we share a private joke. Which in a way is true, isn’t it, darling? I’m watching a documentary, made for the five-year anniversary of her disappearance. She would have loved this, being centre stage on a Saturday night. She was adored by all of us, but, in the end, I was the only one who loved her enough to make sure she got what she really deserved. I just didn’t expect her to come back. Addictive and unputdownable, this gripping page-turnerhas a final twist that will have you on the edge of your seat.

Tom is an orphan from Chicago, a former ambulance driver now gathering bones from the battlefield; Sarah is an expatriate from Boston searching for the husband who wandered off from his division and hasn't been seen since. Quickly, the two fall into a complicated affair against the ghostly backdrop of the ruined city. Months later, Sarah and Tom meet again at the psychiatric ward of an Italian hospital, drawn there by the appearance of a mysterious patient the doctors call Douglas Fairbanks (after the silent film actor) - a shell-shocked soldier with no memory of who he is. At the hospital, Tom and Sarah are joined by Paul, an Austrian journalist with his own interest in the amnesiac. Each is keeping a secret; each has been shaken by the horrors of war.

Dana Liesegang was a lively, athletic, 19-year-old engineman in the US Navy when she was sexually assaulted by a fellow sailor, thrown off a cliff and left for dead. She survived - but woke up in a hospital hours later paralysed from the neck down, with doctors giving no hope for recovery. They underestimated the spirit and stubbornness of their patient. In this book, Dana recounts her agonising and sometimes comical struggle from total dependence to doing the 'impossible' - walking again. In the process, she learns the importance of forgiveness, discovers the awe-inspiring power of belief and perseverance, and transforms herself from silent victim to outspoken advocate and inspiration for people everywhere.
