Every autumn, Elin Ellingson forgets one memory.

Not just any memory, always one tied to someone she once trusted. A childhood friend. A former lover. A mentor. A sister‑in‑law. The forgetting is subtle at first: a missing conversation, a blurred face, a name she can’t quite place. But as the years pass, the losses grow larger, carving holes in her life she can’t explain.

When Elin forgets an entire relationship, a man she once planned to marry, she realizes the pattern is accelerating. Desperate for answers, she returns to her coastal hometown, where the forgetting first began. There, she uncovers a trail of journals she wrote to herself over the years… journals she doesn’t remember writing.

As autumn deepens, Elin races to uncover the truth behind her disappearing past. But the closer she gets, the more she suspects the forgetting isn’t an illness, it’s a warning. And the memory she’s about to lose next may be the one that finally reveals what she’s been running from all along.

A haunting, emotional, slow‑burn thriller about identity, betrayal, and the memories we protect to survive.
