If your life might be another person&#39;s past...&nbsp;What do they know of you?&nbsp;<br />
Could they have the answers you need now?&nbsp;</p><p>Carol is a gifted pianist who has never needed anything but her talent &ndash; until an untreatable injury stops her playing. Terrified that it might end her career, she moves to a village on the coast to convalesce and teach singing. She becomes beguiled by glimpses of her next life &ndash; a healer called Andreq. Is he really what he seems to be? Does his life have any clues that can help her now?&nbsp;</p><p>A duet between land and sea, past and future, trance and waking, <em>My Memories of a Future Life</em> shimmers with mystery and questions. It&rsquo;s a novel about clairvoyants and charlatans, the all-consuming dedication of the professional musician, the shadows that shape us, the yearning for a soul-mate, the tyranny of small towns, and what we do when we lose the thing that gives us our identity.</p><p><em>&#39;I was always fascinated </em>by tales of regression to past lives,&#39; says the author Roz Morris. &lsquo;I thought, what if instead of going to the past, someone went to a future life?

It&#39;s as if you don&#39;t play a piece of classical music; you channel the spirit of the composer. And I thought, what if she couldn&rsquo;t do it any more? And then, what if I threw her together with someone who could trap the part of her that responded so completely to music?&rsquo;</p>
