Edgar® Award nominated author Alison Gaylin is rapidly becoming a major player in the thriller game. A breathtaking novel of suspense, Gaylin’s And She Was introduces a remarkable new protagonist: Brenna Spector, a missing persons investigator afflicted with Hyperthymestic Syndrome, a rare disorder that enables her to remember every moment of every day of her life. A twisting mystery, both chilling and surprising, And She Was sets the haunted investigator on the trail of a missing child who vanished more than a decade earlier—a case with disturbing echoes in Brenna’s own scrupulously remembered past. Discover what Harlan Coben, Lisa Gardener, Laura Lippman, and other masters of suspense and crime fiction have already learned: Alison Gaylin is one of the best!

Interesting main character with a neurological disorder that enables her to remember every detail of her daily life. When a woman goes missing, Brenna is the one trying to solve the case. I have mixed thoughts on this one since I just finished the book. I felt it a bit too long, flashbacks were okay, parts very good and parts simply blah. Deciding whether to read the sequel.

Now traveling to my BC friend to shorten the wishlist! Enjoy! Happy Reading and Happy BookCrossing!

Thanks for thinking of me, DVG! I am planning to send something to you as well.

My Review: Really good suspense book. Looking forward to reading more in this series. I don't have Hyperthymestic Syndrome, but some of my memories are so vivid that I remember scents and other small details, it's spooky. If all my memories were like that I think I would go crazy. 😉
