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.

Reviews
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.
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.
Label me a big fan.
And She Was is solidly plotted and moves at a great pace...I highly recommend this book.
Highly suspenseful...convincing and creative.
And She Was is a deftly plotted, completely involving novel with one of the most memorable protagonists to come along in years.
