I thought it was well written and engaging she had obviously done some good research on forensic techniques and memory recovery. I will definitely read the author again.

Glad you enjoyed it. I have since listened to Heaberlin's two earlier novels:
Lie Still and
Playing Dead. They were good but it was a bit hard to keep track of all the characters--in print, I would have been paging back repeatedly to refresh my memory about who was who. The narrator for
Playing Dead--Madeleine Lambert--was especially good. I cared less for Rebecca Gibel's narration of
Lie Still; she went so broadly comic with one wacky character that it became jarring and distracting.
