House of Correction by Nicci French
Tabitha is not a murderer. She knows she not. She thinks she's not. But what if she's only lying to herself?
When a body is discovered in Okeham, England, Tabitha is shocked to find herself being placed in handcuffs. It must be a mistak. She'd only recently moved back to her childhood hometown, and hadn't even had a chance to reacquaint herself with the neighbors. How could she possibly be a murder suspect?
As Tabitha is shepherded through the system, her entire life is picked apart and scrutinized -- her history of depression and medications, her decision to move back to a town she supposedly hated -- and of course, her past relationship with the victim, her former teacher. But most unsettlingly, Tabitha's own memories of that day are a complete blur.
From the isolation of the correctional facility, Tabitha dissects every piece of evidence, every testimony she can get her hands on, matching them against her own recollections. But as dark, long-buried memories from her childhood come to light, Tabitha begins to question if she knows what kind of person she is after all. The world is convinced she's a killer. Tabitha needs to prove them all wrong.
