The Day the Sun Stopped by Erin Jamieson 

Christine wakes to find herself on a street lined with houses—all identical. Even more disconcerting, she discovers that there's a family that claims to be Christine's—a family with their own secrets. 
Bit by bit, Christine remembers her past life—and wonders if she made a terrible mistake. The question is: is it even possible to return? And what would returning home mean? 

Filial Sojourn by James Damis 

Summoned by a phone call from a man telling him his long-estranged father is in his last days, Rutherford McAndrew drives deep into the upstate boondocks to see him before the end. Instead of impending death, he finds his father the subject of an unsettling clinical experiment and himself drawn in as an unwilling participant. As he insidiously becomes entangled in the dark intentions of the strange psychiatric program, his opportunities to leave diminish.
