The Memory Game by Nicci French

The Memory Game

Nicci French

If you are a fan of mystery/detective stories, you'll like this book. If you like a bit of psychology thrown in, you'll like it even more. It's easy and quick to read and makes you think twice about psychological fashions like 'recovered memories'.

Extract
Each time I returned to this river and this hill which separated me from Natalie, the objects seemed more vividly present. The grass was a richer green, the river more detailed in all its ripples and flurries. In this occasion, the detail was not just more precise but somehow harder as well.
