A hugely inventive, hugely readable novel about two young people
with Multiple Personality Disorder. 'A gripping novel of suspense
that could have come from the pen of Stephen King at his best.'
Daily Telegraph 'Mouse is lying in a strange bed, in a strange
house, with her hand pressed between the thighs of a man she has
never seen before... She doesn't scream. She wants to, but a
lifetime of losing time - and covering up the fact - has left her
skilled at controlling her reactions. She screams inside.' Penny
Driver - 'Mouse' - suffers from Multiple Personality Disorder,
blacking out whenever one of her other personalities takes control
of her mind and body. So when Penny discovers that her new
colleague Andrew Gage also suffers from MPD, she asks for his help.
Through therapy, Andrew's personalities have long since learnt to
co-exist in harmony in an imaginary house inside his head, but
Andrew's 'house' is not quite so ordered as he would like to
believe. In helping Penny, he discovers a locked door under the
stairs, deep in his unconscious - a door that hides the dark secret
as to why Andrew's childhood mind shattered in the first place
