AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'When psychiatrist David Manne is asked by a police detective to consult on an unusual case, he finds himself in a seedy apartment on New York’s Lower East Side, evaluating a suspect who insists he’s not who the police say he is.

'Unable to control his curiosity, David surreptitiously follows the case to an eerie uptown hospital staffed by military doctors returned from World War II. Is the man caught up in a top secret medical testing program? The closer David gets to finding out, the more dangerously entangled he becomes in an intricate game of conspiracy and mistaken identity—a deadly game that threatens to unmoor him from his memories, his sense of reality, his very life.

'Written in relentlessly probing prose, with startling plot twists, The Reflection is a powerful psychological thriller that carries the weight of an instant modern classic.'
