In the small, affluent town of Fairview, Connecticut everything seems picture perfect.

Until one night when young Jenny Kramer is attacked at a local party. In the hours immediately after, she is given a controversial drug to medically erase her memory of the violent assault. But, in the weeks and months that follow, as she heals from her physical wounds, and with no factual recall of the attack, Jenny struggles with her raging emotional memory. Her father, Tom, becomes obsessed with his inability to find her attacker and seek justice while her mother, Charlotte, prefers to pretend this horrific event did not touch her perfect country club world.

As they seek help for their daughter, the fault lines within their marriage and their close-knit community emerge from the shadows where they have been hidden for years, and the relentless quest to find the monster who invaded their town - or perhaps lives among them - drive this psychological thriller to a shocking and unexpected conclusion.

Hot damn...I did not see that ending coming.  I was taken though a labyrinth of clues never really figuring out where the story was taking me, but I was more than happy to be taken along.  It was unsettling, intense and so well written.  I love the point of view the story was told from...a therapist.  It was such a clever way to take the reader inside each of the characters minds and lives.  This book takes on so many issues from so many different points of view.  It is sheer genius.  This book had me thinking that is for sure...what would I do as a parent or as a victim.  Would I want to forget or what lengths would I take to remember?   I can see why this book is getting so much hype, it is just that good.  I would love to see this book made into a movie and I think I read some rumoring that was going to happen.  I really hope it does because it will be a blockbuster hit!  5 HUGE stars.
