Publisher's Summary:
Can a stranger share your memories?
That's the question that haunts Brenna Spector when she first sees footage of missing webcam performer Lula Belle. Naked but hidden in shadow, the "performance artist" shares her deepest, darkest secrets with her unseen male audience.... Wecrets that, to Brenna, are chillingly familiar.
Brenna has perfect memory, able to recall in astonishing detail every moment of every day of her adult life. But her childhood - those carefree years before the traumatic disappearance of her sister, Clea - is frustratingly vague. When Brenna listens to the stories Lula Belle tells her audience, stories only Brenna and Clea could know, those years come to life again in vivid detail. Convinced the missing internet performer has ties to her sister, Brenna takes the case - and in her quest for Lula Belle unravels a web of obsession, sex, guilt, and murder that could regain her family... or cost her life.

A better sequel!
I enjoyed Into the Dark, the second Brenna Spector book much more than the first, And She Was.
Into the Dark grabbed me in the beginning with intrigue, and had me turning the pages quickly to see the next clue in the story.
Twenty-five years ago, Brenna's sister Clea got into a blue car and never returned. Now a PI, Brenna is hired to find " internet performance artist" Lula Bell, who tells stories straight out of Brenna's childhood, stories only Clea would know. Could Lula be Clea? The closer Brenna gets, the more bodies that accumulate.
I hope to see another Brenna Spector book in the future. A worthy read.
Not JUST a edge of your seat thriller...
Not JUST an edge of your seat thriller, but so much more. Gaylin has such fun with the characters while never straying too far from a plot that sweeps rapidly, unpredictably, along. Now I know I'm tardy, but I just finished the Millenium trilogy (my daughter doled out 1 volume each year for Christmas). Believe me, "Dragon Tattoo" girl's got nothing on Brenna Spector. Brenna's funny, smart, quick-witted. Laura Lippman used the most appropriate (and inexcusably punny) descriptor, "memorable." What a fun trip she takes us on.
And, more than a thriller, a book brimming with characters I enjoy spending my time with. A family I would feel at home with, but a hero with an interesting enough quirk, she's like no one I've ever known. Trent, Brenna's co-worker is fleshed out more here than he had been in "And She Was" and he does not disappoint. Brenna's sister, her daughter... And all the personal history that comes out makes it so much more than a procedural book. You find there are plenty of questions about the past and you enjoy trying to fill in the gray areas as Brenna's filling them in.
And, thank the lord, a satisfying ending. Just a great, great read.
A Suspenseful Ride
I enjoyed this book as much as the first - And She Was. Both books grab you from the start and even thought there are a couple sluggish parts, you are in for a suspenseful ride.
At first, Brenna Spector rejects a job offered to her by her former employer Errol Ludlow the man that almost got her killed and can be held partially responsible for ending her first marriage.
Performance artist Lula Belle is missing; this shadowy figure reaches out to her web-based followers in silhouette and tells intimate stories.
