forget me not

by Claudette Hubert

What would you do if the only life you had ever known turned out to be one of the biggest lies ever told? Every moment of your life since the day you were born was a lie, a secret so big, only two people know the truth, and one of them is losing her mind. Detective Fiona Mitchell has just returned to the force after the hardest year of her life. She is breaking in a new partner, caring for her ailing mother in a nursing home with early-stage dementia, all while searching for a serial killer. She wasn't prepared for her world to unravel a second time while still trying to piece together the fragments of her past. What started out as a young woman's body drifting on shore turns into a nightmare hitting a little too close to home for the young detective. Forget Me Not is filled with plot twists, murder, and family secrets that should have been taken to the grave.

I really enjoyed Claudette Hubert's debut novel, Forget Me Not! Fasten your seatbelts, this gripping story will take you on a high speed ride and you won't know what to expect. Meet Fiona Mitchell, a tough as nails seasoned detective who will stop at nothing to track down a serial killer. Despite the recent loss of her partner and the worsening Alzheimer's disease suffered by her mother who she was forced to place in a home, she fights on. I immediately connected with Fiona and felt like I knew her personally because the author did such a good job at describing her childhood and inner thoughts appropriately as the story unfolded through the chapters. This book is written concisely, moves at a rapid pace, has plenty of precisely placed twists, and places the reader right along side Fioan as she unravels the case to find the killer. The characters are well developed and believable. This is a great read for anyone who enjoys crime fiction, thrillers, mysteries, or detective stories. I'm so glad I discovered this book and I look forward to reading more from this terrific author.
