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 sheโs 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. Heโs a strangerโand heโs calmly and methodically telling her how heโs about to attack her. Before Alex can even scream for help, she succumbs to another dose of anesthesia, rendering her unable to defend herselfโฆ. 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 Alexโs adamant claims, no one believes her, leaving her to wonder if she has, in fact, lost her mind. Until she meets the next victimโฆ An edge-of-your-seat psychological thriller, Donโt Wake Up is also a provocative, timely exploration of victimhood, abuse, and the discrediting of women in our culture.
