After a traumatic head injury, Eve questions every memory and motive in this mind-bending psychological thriller.
Eve Gold’s birthdays are killers, and her twenty-seventh proves to be no different. But for the up-and-coming Vancouver artist, facing death isn’t the real shock — it’s what comes after.
Recovering from a near-fatal accident, Eve is determined to return to the life she’s always wanted: a successful artistic career, marriage to the man who once broke her heart, and another chance at motherhood. But brain damage leaves her forgetful, confused, and tortured by repressed memories of a deeply troubled childhood, where her innocence was stolen one lie — and one suspicious death — at a time.
As the dark, twisted pages unfold, Eve must choose between clinging to the lies that helped her survive her childhood and unearthing the secrets she buried long ago.

A superb work of psychological suspense. The Day She Died is the kind of novel that keeps you racing to turn the pages, even as you want to stop and savour every expertly crafted turn of phrase. This is the best book I've read in I-don't-know-how-long: creepy and atmospheric, compelling and arresting, with an ending that will truly haunt you long after you've put the book down. Highly recommended.
The Day She Died is a tightly crafted psychological thriller that explores the themes of memory, perspective, identity, and whether we can ever escape the past. A blend of Elizabeth is Missing and the film Memento, Freedman lures the reader into a dark labyrinth of suspicion that ultimately causes you to question everything.
The opening takes off like a bullet train, hurtling through heartbreak, memory, family, and loss, to an ending which stays with you long after the stunning final chapter. Breathlessly paced and expertly wrought, The Day She Died proves S.M. Freedman is a master of psychological suspense.
Tangible, taut, and maddeningly suspenseful, The Day She Died pulls you in and won't let go.
The Day She Died is as unique as it is gripping... a twisting, time-tumbling narrative that drives the action toward a conclusion that is both unexpected and thoroughly satisfying. S.M. Freedman's prose is clean and crisp; her storytelling utterly compelling.
[A] dreamy tale of sin and guilt.
The book is evocatively written in a league that holds its own with literary fiction ... The Day She Died will be a day you won't soon forget.
A captivating read that pulls you in and drags you along at full-throttle on a white-knuckle ride that delivers you to an inescapable climax.
A gripping journey that will have you thinking about death, memory, and the fluidity of time.
Haunting and unsettling, this is not only a must-read for all thriller fans but for everybody who loves a good plot with many twists and turns.
