On 15th December 1979 Richard's Girlfriend Karen is Seventeen and in a deep coma. She only took a couple of valium washed down with a cocktail, but now she is locked away in suspended animation. What if she was to wake up decades later, a 17 year old girl, in an unfamiliar future?

Part morality tale, part mystery, part muse on the nature of the mind, and wholly engaging with a touch of darkness.

I won't normally have picked this up if I'd seen it in a bookshop. Don't know what I was expecting but it wasn't this. I was particularly taken aback by the ending.

Hmmmm I kind of liked this book - it did have some interesting ideas in it - but like juliako, I didn't get the ending at all, thought it was just, well, weird??
