This is the story of Michael Aston. He is awoken one morning by
thunderous banging on his door. It is the police arresting him for an
attempted murder he has no recollection of committing.
He is taken to the cells, and there he blacks out, only to wake up in
his bed to thunderous banging on the door. He finds himself stuck in a
sort of ground-hog day. Can he solve the mystery or is he doomed to be
arrested again and again?
I rather enjoyed this short novella.
It was well-written and the characters were well rounded. The struggle
that Michael went through as he tried to piece together what was
happening to him was tragic. I thought the idea of leaving himself notes
along the way was a clever one. This was a great idea, skilfully
executed, with plenty of twists and turns to the satisfying ending.
It seems somewhere I've either read or watched something similar. Suspect it I read. If handled right could be great.
