I've read nearly everything that Nicci French has published and I have to say The Memory Game was so disappointing I couldn't finish it. I rarely put aside something I've started no matter how bogged down it gets. I think I only had 30 pages to go and I just didn't care how it ended. I found the main character so annoying and frankly, stupid, with her chain smoking and rambling on at her therapist's office. The Martello family was insufferable. I just didn't get it.I will say this, if you did not like Memory Game DO give Nicci French another try with one of their other books. They are great. I don't know what happened with this one.
