Review #318: Everything She Forgot by Lisa Ballantyne



My rating: 4 of 5 stars



“Integrity is telling myself the truth. And honesty is telling the truth to other people.”

----Spencer Johnson


Lisa Ballantyne, an international best selling author, pens her new thriller, Everything She Forgot that unfolds the story of three characters in three different locations, each unraveling a mystery of their own, finally leading them to meet each other on the crossroads of self-realization. The story revolves in so many time frame and from London to Glasgow o Wick in Scottish Highlands with three different mysteries with no connection with one another, yet keeps the readers guessing till the very end to find that one tiny thread of connection between these three stories.
