Wendy Walker, author of All Is Not Forgotten

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.

All Is Not Forgotten by Wendy Walker

July 2016

I read ALL IS NOT FORGOTTEN by Wendy Walker a long while back in manuscript and then refreshed myself with the story by listening to the audiobook, which is narrated brilliantly by actor Dylan Baker (you’ll know his voice from “The Good Wife” and “The Americans”).

At the heart of the story is the rape of Jenny Kramer, a young teen who was assaulted in the woods where she wandered off to while a party was going on. A decision is made to erase the memory of what happened to Jenny that night so she can move on with her life. But she does not bounce back to being the teen she was. There are many layers of hurt here, including a scar on her lower back that keeps bothering her. While the memory of that night is gone, there are triggers that remain.

Week of July 17, 2017

Paperback releases for the week of July 17th include BUSH, an account of George W. Bush's life by distinguished presidential biographer Jean Edward Smith, who shows how he ignored his advisors to make key decisions himself --- most disastrously in invading Iraq --- and how these decisions were often driven by the President’s deep religious faith; THE FALL, in which John Lescroart puts Dismas Hardy and his daughter in the middle of an uncertain murder case where winning the trial could mean losing everything; and ALL IS NOT FORGOTTEN, Wendy Walker's debut psychological thriller that poses an intriguing question: Will she choose to remember the one thing she wanted to forget?
