In a world where shadows vanish and memories fade, Ory and Max fight to hold onto their love amidst chaos. When Max loses her shadow, Ory desperately searches for her across a transformed America. Their journey intertwines with a cast of unforgettable characters, each grappling with loss and hope. Fitzgerald’s haunting prose explores the power of memory and the resilience of the human spirit, leaving readers spellbound and questioning the nature of identity itself.
Memory is the only thing that binds you to your identity, and without it, you are untethered, a ship lost at sea.
