Turn of Mind by Alice LaPlante
Early-onset Alzheimer’s propels sixty-four-year-old orthopedic surgeon Dr. Jennifer White into reluctant retirement from a successful group practice in downtown Chicago. Jennifer grapples to reorient herself each day with the help of a journal while adjusting to a caregiver in her home. Then, Amanda Poole—a lifelong friend and neighbor—is found dead at home, and Jennifer’s uneasy routine shatters. Jennifer’s mind disintegrates in tandem with the police inquiry which places her at the epicenter of their investigation in LaPlante’s insightful contemporary literary thriller.
