| Summary |
Sixteen-year-old Lucy Miller's family has been erasing people's heartaches and tragic memories for decades, but after an encounter with Marco Warman--a local boy Lucy has always wondered about and who seems to know more than he should--Lucy begins to question her family's legacy and her role in it. |
|
People come to Memory House in Tumble Tree, Texas-- to forget. Lucy Miller's father can literally erase folks' heartache and tragic memories, and she can't wait to learn the family trade. As Lucy practices memory-taking on her dad, his memory won't come loose-- and in the bit that Lucy sees, there's a flash of Mama on the day she died, tinged red with guilt. Lucy wakes up the next morning with a bruised knee, a pocketful of desert sand, and no memory of what happened. And Marco Warman seems to know more than he should. Lucy and Marco team up to fill in the gaps in their own memories, figure out what's really going on in their town, and uncover their own stolen history along the way. But there are some secrets people will do anything to keep.... -- adapted from jacket |
