Lullaby by Bernard Beckett
Rene’s
twin brother Theo lies unconscious in hospital after a freak accident left him
with massively disrupted brain function. There is hope though. An experimental
procedure—risky, scientifically exciting and ethically questionable—could allow
him to gain a new life. But what life, and at what cost?

decision.
But
first there is the question of Rene’s capacity to make that decision. And this
is where the real story begins. (Source: Text Publishing)
