For all of her seventeen years, Molly feels like she's missed bits and pieces of her life. Her memory is perforated with holes and gaps. But then a horrible accident changes everything.
Now she's starting to remember her own disturbing secrets. And bit by bit, Molly uncovers the separate life she seems to have led--and the love that she can't let go.
What secrets are buried in the gaps of Molly's memory?
- YA Psychological Thriller: A dying boy knows Molly's name, but she has no idea who he is. Uncovering their connection will force her to question everything she thinks she knows about herself.
- Dissociative Identity Disorder: Molly isn't just losing time--she's living a whole other life she can't remember. As the memories of her alter-ego begin to surface, she realizes the other girl is the key to the mystery.
- Unreliable Narrator: Told from the fractured perspective of a girl whose mind is her own worst enemy. The truth is hidden in the gaps, and every memory that returns could be another lie.
- Memory Loss Mystery: She's in love with a boy she can't remember meeting and haunted by a boy she can't forget. To piece together her past, she'll have to choose who to trust when she can't even trust herself.
