This is such an intriguing book. I've not heard of this author before but I'm glad I chose to read it. 

It's a brilliant story based on rehabilitation but Zoe can't remember anything. 

The people working and other patients staying at the Sanctuary seem to be witholding something from Zoe. I couldn't put my finger on what it was they were witholding but I really enjoyed continuing to find out.

This was an interesting book and not the ending I imagined. I had a feeling the Sanctuary wasn't what it seemed and as you continue to read you feel you may be right. No spoilers here, just a really well written book covering some tricky subjects which the author handles well and sensitively.
