About this title

Synopsis

Some memories are stolen. Others refuse to stay buried.

When a dying woman whispers your name, and you've never met her before, everything you thought you knew becomes a lie.

Elijah Cross has spent ten years as an ER trauma nurse, learning to keep his distance from death. But when a patient arrives at midnight, bruised and burning with fever, she does the impossible: she looks him in the eyes and speaks his name.

Then she dies.

The hospital has no record of her. The police have no missing person's report. But Elijah can't shake the feeling that he's seen her before, not in person, but in fragments of memories he shouldn't have.

When a mysterious woman named Rae appears with a key and a warning, Elijah is pulled into a conspiracy that reaches back to his childhood, to experiments he doesn't remember, to a research facility that was supposed to be destroyed, and to a woman named Amara who died twelve years ago.

Or did she?

As Elijah uncovers the truth about Project ANIMA - a secret program that manipulated children's memories and identities, he realizes he wasn't just a witness to the experiments.

He was the experiment.

Now, with a shadowy organization hunting him and his own memories fracturing under the weight of buried trauma, Elijah must decide: Is it better to live in ignorance, or risk everything for a truth that could destroy him?

Because some memories refuse to stay buried. And some secrets are worth killing for - twice.

Perfect for fans of Blake Crouch's Dark Matter, S.J. Watson's Before I Go to Sleep, and Netflix's The OA.
