description: Beck is an anxious single mother of one small son, plagued by a sore throat and an irrational dislike of white lilac. Dr. Jonathan Comfort treats her first for the throat and then tends to her heart. Beck had forgotten what it was like to fall in love but now she’s looking forward to the festive season with her new family. That is until a near-fatal mishap with the Christmas tree lights lands Beck in hospital - and when she wakes up from her coma she can remember more than just tinsel and pine needles. She remembers with incredible clarity and in great detail the sights and sounds of nineteenth century India and a horrific massacre on the Ganges. Worse, she can remember her life as a Hindu warrior who slaughtered English women and children. How did Beck get these memories? Is she mad or have she and Jonathan met before? And if they have, how can she convince him not only to believe her but also to forgive her? Rich, colorful and inventive, Lifestory is a warm and witty novel from a writer of exceptional talent.
