Why read it?
1 author picked In the Dark We Forget as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
A thriller with a kick-ass premise: Chloe wakes up on the side of a highway not knowing who the heck she is or how she got there.
It’s a haunting, scary, unnerving story about a woman trying to figure out what could have happened to completely wipe out her memory. What I love about the novel is how Wong’s relentless pace matches lockstep with her protagonist’s frenzied and fractured state of mind.

From Katie's list on The best Canadian thrillers about messy characters haunted by their messy pasts.
