The story
Tessa has a peculiar affliction: whenever someone she loves lies to her, she loses a memory of them. After the Prescotts adopted her at five, the condition lay dormant for twenty years, until the summer they bring home Hallie, the biological daughter they lost two decades ago. The family swears nothing will change, yet Tessa begins forgetting small things—her mother's birthday soup, a mountain hike with her brother Garrett.
Then, on her twenty-fifth birthday, Tessa returns unannounced to the family brownstone in Beacon Hill and overhears her mother and Garrett quietly dividing her inheritance—the South End townhouse, the Newbury Street studio—with Hallie. When she confronts them, Garrett insists it is all temporary, and another memory slips away.
Hallie, distraught, pushes the brass keys back toward Tessa, while her family's panic and reassurance grow ever more convincing. Tessa must decide how much of herself she is willing to lose to the people who claim to love her.
Opening
1
I have a peculiar affliction.
Every time someone I love lies to me, I lose a memory of them.
After the Prescotts adopted me at five years old, the condition went dormant for twenty years. Not a single symptom. I lived in the comforting certainty of their devotion until the summer they finally found Hallie—the biological daughter they had lost in a crowded department store two decades ago.
The night Hallie was brought home, Mom held me in her arms until dawn, her tears soaking through the shoulder of my linen shirt.
