Did she do it?

I've just started Alice la Plante's debut novel, Turn of Mind, about Dr Jennifer White, a retired orthopedic surgeon who is struggling with early onset dementia. When her best friend Amanda O'Toole is found murdered, with four of her fingers surgically removed, Jennifer is a key suspect.

Why I picked it up : "Is the perfect murder the one you can't forget or the one you can't remember?" - the promotional tagline caught my eye.

Who I'd recommend it to : To anyone who has read Still Alice by Lisa Genova.

It won the The Wellcome Trust Book Prize 2011.
