A murder unsolved… A trail of evidence gone cold… Now, memory is her only hope, but can a victim’s preserved memories help catch a murderer?
Ten years ago, someone brutally murdered Amara Ashcroft's twin sister, Nisha. No one ever found her killer. No one ever found any evidence at all. The loss devastated her family and drove her father to suicide.
Now, through the use of a controversial new technology known as memory reconsolidation, Amara hopes to unmask a murderer by having Nisha's last memories implanted in her mind. But Nisha’s killer, still at large and closer than Amara thinks, might be something more than human…
Something capable of manipulating time and memory…
Something with an appetite for flesh and blood…
