    About this ebook

    This short story based loosely on the writing style of Gothic romanticism explores memory and the after life from a present tense, third person perspective. It follows Shelin the protagonist struggling with memory loss, who finds herself in a foreign house piecing together her past only to find her present in a terrifying state of Déjà vu.
