All Is Not Forgotten by Wendy Walker
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Rape is a difficult subject, always. You go from the obvious to the gory, and it's almost never good. In this case, the story is very well written.
A young girl from an affluent town is raped the night of a party, and as happens with small communities, almost everyone can be a suspect. After the rape, her parents and doctors decide to give her a new drug that will erase her memories of what happened.
But this does not go well, as she knows she was raped, and this is one thing she can't forget.
The story is told by her therapist, who also happens to be her parents therapist. But he is more involved than he should in this matter, he even suspects his son!
The only reason I can't give this book 5 stars is because, for me, the end was somewhat contrived. Things we didn't know about suddenly happened and were resolved. But all in all, a very good book.
I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.
