Before I Go to Sleep meets Law & Order in an epic, thrilling crime story reminiscent of Memento, Breaking Bad and L.A. Confidential David Sarac wakes up behind the wheel of a car after suffering a momentary stress-induced stroke. He has crashed violently inside a tunnel and awakens to find his whole world changed. David works in intelligence for the Stockholm police, recruiting and handling secret informants who help the police in the battle against organized crime. And David is very good at what he does: manipulation, bribes and threats—anything goes, as long as he delivers. Other law-enforcement agents look on with envy from the sidelines, sharing whispers and rumours about the top-secret, high-level informant named Janus who is the key to David’s success. But after the accident, David remembers nothing about the past two years. Not even Janus, the man everyone wants to find. David knows he has to re-establish contact with Janus in order to protect himself and his network of secret informants. Luckily, he is surrounded by friends and colleagues who are more than happy to help him remember. Or maybe to forget? Previously published as Memorandom,Anders de la Motte brings his signature energy to a modern noir story that weaves together the criminal underworld, law enforcement and high-level politics—and shows us how deeply and irreversibly those worlds are intertwined, and that anyone can be corrupted—for a price.
