She has no idea who she is and doesn't even recognize her own voice, but somehow retains knowledge of how to drive the car, which opens with the key she finds in her jeans pocket. Further clues are discovered in the purse beneath the driver's seat-a license, some credit cards, and a checkbook. \"Jenny\" drives to her home, where the nightmare intensifies as her loving mother and brother recognize her but she has no memory of them or of Crystal, her best friend (obviously the dead girl). When she falls into bed with Amir, Crystal's boyfriend, and reads Crystal's diary, Jenny begins to put the puzzle pieces together to discover how Amir physically forced himself on her and commanded her to kill her friend. Confusing metaphysics and stereotypical, one-dimensional characters do nothing to move the contrived plot. Try steering teens to Stephen King, Beverly Hastings, and the many other horror-story writers who can put together a plot and characterization with some creativity.Susan R.
