A year and a half ago, Cornelia Winthorp was in a car accident that killed her fiancé, placed her in a coma for 226 days, and left her with brain damage causing chronic paranoia. Now, she lives every day feeling like someone is watching her.
Following a friend’s untimely death, she takes steps to rejoin the world of the living. Desperately short on rent money and starting to feel pinched, she recognizes opportunity in a well-dressed man and slips a few hundreds from his wallet, only to find a flash drive bearing a logo that – just like him – seems oddly familiar. Upon further examination of the strange medical documentation it contains, she learns why:
At some point during her coma, she was awake – and he was her doctor.
Now, he’ll do anything to bring her back under his care.
THE GIRL IN APARTMENT 19 follows Cornelia as she uncovers what really happened while she was sleeping. With the help of a nurse who always had her back and a coworker who would literally run into a burning building to save her, she rediscovers love and friendship, and – upon learning her fiancé might still be alive – develops a taste for vengeance.
