"Mesmerizes as it immerses readers in the strange and fractured coalescence of memory." – Hollay Ghadery
The first-person narrator has arrived at a house set high in the mountains in an undisclosed, remote location. He is confused, disoriented, and guarded. The home is owned by a man who is suffering from an illness affecting his memory. Both must navigate their combined gaps in memory to determine why they’ve been brought together.
