About this ebook
I may not remember everything, but I know he won't hurt anyone else. I won't let him.
It's been two months since a serial killer brutally attacked police detective Alisha Green and left her for dead. Two months since she could effortlessly recall simple things, since her mind felt remotely sound. The nameless killer thinks he knows her, thinks she's just another dead girl among many. Ali Green plans to show him he's dead wrong about that.
Ali has two enemies now: the dangerous man she's hunting, and her own failing memory. As explosive new evidence comes to light, and conflicting accounts from a witness and a surviving victim threaten both her investigation and her credibility, she begins to question what is and isn't real. And now Ali has no choice but to remember the past…before it buries her.
A hypnotically gripping thriller that proves internationally bestselling author Graeme Cameron is one of the most unique voices in contemporary fiction today.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Thank you to Harlequin-Park Row Books and NetGalley for an advance e-copy of Dead Girls by Graeme Cameron in exchange for an honest review. Detective Sergeant Ali Green has been attacked by a serial killer and left with severe memory problems. Upon her return to work, she tries to overcome and mask her memory issues while investigating the abduction and murder of several young women. This psychological thriller has great potential and has all the markings of a fascinating read but it seems to confuse the reader with too many characters with too few reasons for being in the story. However, the author brings the novel to a satisfactory end. I would like to read more books by this author because he shows capabilities for writing good suspense fiction.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The prologue of Graeme Cameron's Dead Girls is excellent; the race to save a missing girl and police officers' lives being in danger yanked me right into the heart of the story. This is a fast-paced tale that can, at times, be bloody, although there is some tiny consolation for female readers in the fact that it's a man's blood being shed instead of a woman's. This may be a thriller, but the characters and their behavior are what fuel the action. Erica Shaw is the missing girl everyone is frantic to save, but as the story progresses and more facts come to light, readers begin to question her innocence. Is it possible that she's a victim of Stockholm Syndrome-- or something else?And of course, Ali Green is front and center. The victims and their families are all-important to her, and she will do anything it takes to bring them justice. However, she has suffered major head trauma and is back at work against doctors' orders. The further into the investigation she gets, the readers (and some of her co-workers) realize that she is occasionally hallucinating and speaking aloud without realizing she's doing so. Her shifting focus can have readers distrusting all the other police officers until they begin to wonder-- how much is Ali affected by her injuries? Can she be relied upon?After seeing how skilled Cameron is with his story, characters, and pacing, I'm definitely looking forward to reading more of his work.
