The Description

Publication Date: December 12, 2023

Haunted by a forgotten past. Hunted by a ruthless killer. No one to save her but herself.

After surviving a car crash, Kay Smith wakes from a coma with amnesia, a battered face, and no one to vouch for her identity. Her psychiatrist is convinced that her memory loss is connected to the horrific flashbacks and nightmares haunting her. As she digs for clues to her past, Kay uncovers a shady character following her every inquiry. Who is he? And what does he want from her?

As Kay’s probes deepen, she realizes that everyone around her has deadly secrets to hide—even her. Emerging memories, guilty suspicions, and headline-screaming murders push Kay to come out of the shadows and choose: will she perpetuate a horrendous lie or risk her life to uncover the truth?

Excerpt The Review

Waking up in a rehabilitation facility after a car wreck is stressful enough, but for Kay Smith, amnesia gets added to the list.

Author Lisa Malice takes readers on a journey packed with suspense as Kay tries to recover her memories in Lest She Forget.

With no personal possessions to verify her identity, Kay turns to the accident report and tries to trace her journey from the hospital to the rehab center. She stumbles upon conflicting information, which, coupled with her nightmares, increases her confusion.

The amnesia angle is balanced by a secondary narrative featuring the man hunting Kay. His ruthless efforts leave bodies in his wake. Kay puts her trust in a helpful stranger but second-guesses herself.

The puzzle pieces finally fall into place after a dangerous turn of events that forces Kay to confront the demons of her nightmares.

Lest She Forget delivers an unexpected twist leading to a satisfying end, ensuring the bad guys get what they deserve. Buy Links
