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.

And She Was is solidly plotted and moves at a great pace...I highly recommend this book.
Label me a big fan.
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.
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.
