7.22.2024 - Echoes of Memory

Echoes of Memory by Sara Driscoll 

Many thanks to NetGalley, Kensington Books, and Recorded Books Media for gifting me both a digital and audio ARC of this standalone book by Sara Driscoll, wonderfully narrated by Cynthia Farrell.  All opinions expressed in this review are my own - 4.5 stars rounded up!

Quinn survived a terrible attack that left her with a traumatic brain injury.  Three months later, she relies on tips she learned in a TBI support group to help her retain her short-term memories.  When she witnesses a crime, she writes down the details before she forgets them.  The police aren't impressed and she soon starts experiencing flashbacks about the crime, leading her to do her own investigation.

I got lost in this book, and loved being able to switch from the audio to the digital versions so I could keep reading.  I thought the TBI storyline was fascinating, as were all the tricks and tips Quinn used to help retain her memories.  The suspense was high and I worried for Quinn's safety as she took things into her own hands.  Detective Reyes was the only law enforcement officer who put stock into Quinn's story, and she turned into a very sympathetic friend and supporting character.   Great read - would love to read more from these characters!
