From Grand Central Publishing:
"In what passes for an ordinary day in a psych ward, Dr. Zoe Goldman is stumped when a highly unusual case arrives. A young African American girl, found wandering the streets of Buffalo in a catatonic state, is brought in by police. No one has come forward to claim her, and all leads have been exhausted, so Zoe's treatment is the last hope to discover the girl's identity.
When drugs prove ineffective and medical science seems to be failing, Zoe takes matters into her own hands to track down Jane Doe's family and piece together their checkered history. As she unearths their secrets, she finds that monsters hide where they are least expected. And now she must solve the mystery before it is too late. Because someone wants to make sure this young girl never remembers.
"The Girl Without a Name is a powerful novel of memory and forgetting, of unexpected friendship and understanding...and of the secrets we protect no matter the consequences."
Sandra A. Block graduated from college at Harvard, then returned to her native land of Buffalo, New York for medical training and never left.

"Little Black Lies" is her debut, and "The Girl Without a Name" is the next novel in the series.

Thanks for the link, this is a good book. Thanks for the giveaway.
sounds like I should wrap myself in a cuddly quilt before reading this one. Thanks for the chance to win a copy.
Hey, thanks for the opportunity to win a book! It actually sounds pretty interesting. Kinda of like a who-dun-it mystery. You get information gradually and try to figure it out. I hope it's one of those books where the reader can figure things out and piece it together on their own before the book reveals the answer!
Thanks for the awesome giveaway
teddyelaine@yahoo.com Would like to win this book thanks

I read her first and liked it, especially as the local color of Buffalo, NY was excellent.
