When Brenna Spector was a child, her older sister stepped into a strange car never to be seen again. This traumatic event triggered in Brenda a rare neurological disorder that enables her to recall every detail of every day of her life, except - cruelly - that dark day when her sister disappeared.
Nowadays Brenna puts her unusual skill to use as a missing persons investigator and it's while she's trying to find local woman Carol Wentz that she discovers connections to another child's disappearance, ten years earlier. Before too long a link to her own past emerges. Could this be the answer she's been hunting for all these years?
Crackling with suspense and intrigue, And She Was is the first of a sensational new thriller series starring a heroine like no other.
Alison Gaylin's debut was nominated for an Edgar Award in the Best First Novel category. A graduate of Northwestern University and Columbia University's Graduate School of Journalism, Alison lives with her husband and daughter in upstate New York.

The perfect storm; a serious talent hits on a great idea and sparks a wonderful new character we'll follow anywhere. One of my favourite writers raises the bar - again. * LEE CHILD, International #1 Bestseller on INTO THE DARK *
And She Was is a deftly plotted, completely involving novel with one of the most memorable protagonists to come along in years. * Laura Lippman, New York Times Bestseller *
And She Was is solidly plotted and moves at a great pace...I highly recommend this book. * Charlaine Harris, Sunday Times Bestseller *
The complexity of the task Alison Gaylin has taken on in creating Brenna Spector, and the seeming ease with which she writes her, are quite breathtaking. This is a real pleasure of a read. I'm a huge fan. * Alex Marwood - Bestselling author of The Wicked Girls *
Highly suspenseful...convincing and creative. * Morning Star *
