They Tried To Forget

By Tabitha Vohn

As a child, Sarah is found by the sea.
She is mute and either cannot remember the past or chooses not to. Although she is adored by her new parents and two older brothers, the community she inhabits harbors a deep secret.

When Sarah begins to speak, it is in stories. Riddles of a long-ago time she does not understand. She tells them at a great risk, causing alarm to her family and danger to all.

Everything about her seems wrong; everything about them seems wrong. One by one, those she has come to depend upon begin to disappear from her life, and as the revelation of the truth about them begins to piece together in her mind, Sarah must choose between sacrifice or self-preservation with everlasting consequences.

Combining elements of Gothicism, Folklore, Spiritualism, and Myth, They Tried to Forget reimagines the Beginning and all that has gone unanswered.
