A funny, heartbreaking and deeply human novel about dementia, family, love and the memories that refuse to disappear.
Maggie Harris has never done anything by halves - and dementia is no exception.
One minute she's misplacing the remote. The next she's putting the kettle somewhere it definitely doesn't belong, setting off on an unexpected adventure or leaving her family wondering what on earth she'll do next.
For her son Tom, loving Maggie means learning to live with the unpredictable.
As her world begins to change, familiar routines become uncertain and memories start slipping beyond reach. There are difficult days, frightening moments and losses neither of them is ready for.
But Maggie is still Maggie.
She is funny, stubborn, mischievous and capable of causing chaos wherever she goes. And through every forgotten name, confused conversation and unexpected detour, the bond between mother and son remains.
Tom can't stop what is happening to his mum. He can't bring back every memory she loses. All he can do is meet her wherever she happens to be - and hold on to the moments that still belong to them.
The Forget-Me-Not Chronicles is a warm, funny and moving story about the reality of dementia, the families living alongside it and finding laughter and love even when life becomes impossibly hard.
Perfect for readers who enjoy emotional, character-led fiction filled with humour, humanity and heart.
Because sometimes the smallest moments are the ones we remember most.
