Imagine taking your dog for a walk on a chilly November evening, fireworks lighting up the sky. You expect joy. But instead, you’re dragged into the woods. Beaten. Violated. Left for dead.

This is what happens to Deanne Wallace in William S. Grant’s harrowing novel Remember, Remember. And the real question that hovers throughout the book is: What would you do if you were her?

The reader is confronted with this question over and over. Because what Deanne faces isn’t just physical recovery. It’s the psychological aftermath that lingers. She must navigate fear, rage, confusion, and even guilt. Would you collapse? Would you fight? Would you hide?

Deanne does a little of each, and then she transforms. She channels her pain into strength, her fear into action. While many would want to escape or even disappear, Deanne chooses to face the world. She returns to work. She rebuilds her relationship. She steps back into her life—not because she’s fearless, but because she refuses to be consumed by fear.

At one point in the novel, Deanne says, “I will be a victor, not a victim. There is only one thing that causes a woman to be raped, a rapist, and this bastard left me for dead” That moment of clarity shows just how far she’s come. She won’t shoulder the blame. She won’t live in the shadow of someone else’s monstrosity. And she won’t wait for justice to validate her pain.

And yet, justice remains elusive. The system is cautious, slow, and flawed. Mike Walker, her assailant, moves on with his life—hidden, unrepentant, and still dangerous. Deanne, on the other hand, must navigate a maze of therapy, societal whispers, and silent scars.

This imbalance raises the question: What is justice? Is it a courtroom victory? A confession? Or is it reclaiming your voice, living your truth, and refusing to break? For Deanne, it becomes all three. She finds her strength not in the courts, but in herself. In her gym routines. In her conversations with Charlotte, her therapist. In her resilience to smile despite the trauma.

The world may not always give you justice. But you can give yourself the power to rewrite your narrative to reclaim your life and sense of purpose, even if it calls to take revenge on the person who altered your life, once and for all.

Unfortunately, if you ever find yourself in a similar situation, what would you do? Would you wait for death to come and take your soul? Or would you fight, rise, and hunt the hunter to bring peace to your life?

Deanne chose the latter. Could you?

“Remember, Remember” is a masterclass in suspense. It is a novel that explores the darker corners of the human psyche with chilling precision—and will stay with you long after you’ve turned the final page.

In short, for those who love both suspense and thrill, Remember, Remember is the perfect and chilling read. Set against a thrilling backdrop of Guy Fawkes Night and its celebration, the amazing and unexpected story follows a deadly incident that will shatter even the strongest of us, as it did with Deanne. By blending elements of psychological suspense with profound explorations of trauma, revenge, and recovery, “Remember, Remember” is a nerve-racking yet touching story that takes us beyond a typical revenge narrative and challenges us to consider what true justice means and whether revenge can ever heal the wounds of the past.

For fans of psychological thrillers, this novel offers an intense, thought-provoking journey that will linger long after the final page.

Could Deanne confront her attacker? And if she does, what would be the consequences?
