A quiet calm has settled over the quirky coastal town of Ebonreach Bay, but a new crime wave threatens to disrupt the peace. For Linwood "Linny" Crane, owner of The Curious Case bookstore and cafe, and his partner, the brilliant investigative journalist Nora Penrose, life is about to get weird again, even by their standards. A string of bizarre thefts has the town on edge. Cherished sentimental items are vanishing from homes without a single trace. There are no broken locks, no footprints, and no witnesses. It's as if the objects simply... cease to exist. But this is no ordinary thief. The victims aren't just losing their possessions; they're losing the memories attached to them. As the objects disappear, so does any recollection of ever owning them, leaving the victims in a state of gentle, heartbreaking confusion. . In a town where logic is merely a suggestion, they must confront a puzzle that blurs the line between a cunning human plot and a supernatural force, before more than just memories are lost for good.
