The SoulScape Chronicles

Olivia wants to erase her memories. Seth stands in her way.

Depressed Olivia James has a quest: She believes cutting-edge technology that allows people to “memory travel” can help her erase her past. Angry with the world that has hurt her and struggling with intrusive flashbacks, she’ll do whatever it takes to get rid of the pain — including turning her case into an experiment for a startup company looking to expand its power.

Seth Evans, a client manager at the Seattle startup SoulScape, sees Olivia as an opportunity to climb the corporate ladder. But experiencing Olivia’s memories in the simulation room tugs on Seth’s conscience. Does his company care more about the bottom line than harming clients? Is escaping his crushing debt worth being complicit?

As his corporate bosses plot behind the scenes, Seth is torn between his responsibilities and his growing feelings for Olivia. But Olivia’s desperation may drive her to lengths he can’t predict.

If Seth can’t convince her an alternative exists, he may lose Olivia forever to the depression that stalks her like a beast.
