Sometimes I Lie
By Alice Feeney
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My name is Amber Reynolds. There are three things you should know about me:
1. I’m in a coma.
2. My husband doesn’t love me anymore.
3. Sometimes I lie.

Amber wakes up in a hospital. She can’t move. She can’t speak. She can’t open her eyes. She can hear everyone around her, but they have no idea. Amber doesn’t remember what happened, but she has a suspicion her husband had something to do with it. Alternating between her paralyzed present, the week before her accident, and a series of childhood diaries from twenty years ago, this brilliant psychological thriller asks: Is something really a lie if you believe it's the truth?

This was brilliant! I absolutely loved it dark and twisted. Sent you in so many directions and dealt with so many things. Very well written and can’t wait to read more from this author.

That's Sharpe's Regiment.

As such, it never touches at all upon the impact of the war on the 'ordinary folk', which is exactly what this one (of only two) specially-written-for-TV episodes do, with Sharpe returning home to England, during the peace of 1814, with his reputation restored (following the events of Sharpe's Revenge) in search of his money which has been stolen by his unfaithful wife who is now having an affair.

Posted to the Yorkshire moors, Sharpe soon finds himself trapped between his corrupt employers and their downtrodden (and luddite, as they fear machines are taking their place) workers, reconnecting with those from his childhood and discovering along the way that some of them are closer related to him than he thought ...
