Thriller Psychological
A harrowing psychological thriller debut about a woman who
awakens after an assault with no physical proof of the
attack and who must try to convince everyone of what really
happened. When Dr. Alex Taylor opens her eyes, she is hooked up to an
IV, is bound to an operating table, and her legs are raised
in stirrups. Disoriented and alarmed, she assumes she’s been
anesthetized and brought to surgery after being in an
accident. But the man standing over her, with his face
hidden behind a surgical mask and wielding instruments, is
no doctor she recognizes at the hospital where she works as
a successful and respected doctor. He’s a stranger—and he’s
calmly and methodically telling her how he’s about to attack
her. Before Alex can even scream for help, she succumbs to
another dose of anesthesia, rendering her unable to defend
herself…. When she comes to on a gurney, she finds herself surrounded
by her colleagues and immediately reports the attack and
rape. The police are skeptical of her bizarre story. And
after a physical exam reveals no proof of any attack, even
her boyfriend has doubts. Despite Alex’s adamant claims, no
one believes her, leaving her to wonder if she has, in fact,
lost her mind. Until she meets the next victim… An edge-of-your-seat psychological thriller, Don’t Wake
Up is also a provocative, timely exploration of
victimhood, abuse, and the discrediting of women in our culture.
