New York City cop Barry Sutton investigates the devastating phenomenon the media has dubbed False Memory Syndrome– a mysterious affliction that drives its victims mad with memories of a life they never lived. Neuroscientist Helena Smith dedicated her life to creating a technology that will let us preserve our most precious moments of our pasts. If she succeeds, anyone will be able to re-experience a first kiss, the birth of a child, the final moment with a dying parent. Together they face a force that attacks not just our minds but the very fabric of the past. Memory makes reality– and the force is beginning to unmake the world as we know it. — adapted from jacket.
