Enigmatic psychological thriller encompassing time and space, that makes you appreciate your own mental abilities even more, after experiencing the terrors of memory loss through the eyes and thoughts of another, as visualized in this book. Superb review.

This gripping book sounds excitingly out of the ordinary with a plot that is both unique and chilling. Being involved in an accident that renders him unconscious for more than three years, accompanied with a loss of memory is a daunting prospect, but picking the pieces of your life and your career up afterwards, with plenty of other suspense and action as well makes this a story to remember and to reflect upon. I had a similar, but less serious accident myself, also with memory loss, so this will be interesting for me to read. Your review described the book well and also kept me guessing what will happen!

A thin line between the real and the imagined....this book sounds like a psychological action-packed thriller. That a reader struggles to choose whether to like or dislike John's character is in itself, intriguing. I can't wait to see how far he goes to mask his situation. Thanks for the spinning review.

A nice mystery filled story in the book "The Freedom Building" by Martin Kendall, which focuses on John Gowan of Blanworth, who sets up an architecture firm and builds Zenith Star building, and later comes to know that the Zenith building is blown up by terrorists. The story appears to be a nice psychological thriller.

A chief architect with amnesia, employing elaborate maneuvers to evade suspicion while keeping the truth under wraps?! Now that does sound like a psychological thriller with a well-constructed plot. Thanks for your review!

As I could notice from the sample, the novel is remarkable for all the reasons that you mentioned.
The first is, in my opinion, delayed disclosure, which keeps the reader wondering and thinking of own solutions.
Also, the author makes use a lot of imagination: many write psychological novels but what happens to this character is really unexpected and intriguing.
The review identifies other strong points too and leaves the potential readers' need to find out what really happen unspoiled.
A great review of a great book. Thank you!

The sample left me wanting more. This book has all the makings of a thriller i would enjoy reading. Terrorism and amnesia will be interesting to find out how it plays out

Great review! I like that you pointed out the fact that many psychological thrillers are somewhat short on action or slow, but this one is not. I usually dislike terrorist type novels but the psychological element in this one sounds quite intriguing.

This is a psychological fiction thriller, filled with various twist and plots, quite a number of topics were addressed. An innocent comment can be misconstrued in different quarters which can lead to actions beyond control of the speaker as seen in this write up.

An action-driven psychological novel sounds like a nice read. I like it that it encompasses a wide range of its topics like friendship, love, professional success, and many others. However, I'm not a fan of this genre and would want to pass on this one.

Oh, wow! Sounds like a great psychological thriller! The Amazon blurb already intrigued me, but your comment that he awakens over THREE YEARS after an accident clinches it. I want to give this a try. Thanks for your review! I'm excited to try this book.

What an excellent review, I love the book already. Psychological thrillers are perhaps, one of my favorites and I love how the book is about that and much more.

This sounds like a very complex, psychological novel. I love that the author dives into a person's inner demons. Congrats on the book of the day. Great review.

Unpredictable turn of events, i didn't expect to happen to John Gowan. I miss a little more details in the begining of the book, such as a bit more of Johns life(describing him in general), but as the story continues it gets better.
