Book 1: The Memory Keeper's Apprentice
Riley Bennett never believed in the supernatural-until the day Warren Kemp offered him a job that would save his life and end it at the same time.
In Millbrook, a small Midwestern town hiding an ancient secret, some memories are too painful to carry alone. Riley discovers that Warren runs more than an antique shop on Third Street. He's a Memory Keeper, someone who can take your worst moments and store them away so you can finally breathe again.
But Warren is dying. His body is giving out. And the convergence point-the supernatural place where memories can be safely stored-needs a new keeper. Riley doesn't know what he's agreeing to when he says yes. He doesn't understand that keeping memories means becoming something more than human and less than alive.
Now Riley is bound to the building on Third Street. He can feel every memory stored in its walls. He can sense everyone in Millbrook who's carrying pain they can't handle. He can't leave. He can't die. He can only serve.
When Brenda Martin comes to him desperate to forget the day her son died, Riley has to decide what kind of keeper he'll be. When Travis Coleman shows up ready to end his life over something he did fifteen years ago, Riley learns that some memories change people forever-even when they're stored away.
This is the story of what it costs to carry other people's pain. What it means to sacrifice everything for strangers. And what happens when you become the guardian of an entire town's suffering.
Some burdens were never meant to be carried alone. That's why keepers exist.
