“Emmett Farmer is a binder’s apprentice.  His job is to hand-craft beautiful books and, within each, to capture something unique and extraordinary: a memory.
If you have something you want to forget, or a secret ot hide, he can bind it – and you will never have to remember the pain it caused.
In a vault under his mentor’s workshop, row upon row of books – and secrets – are meticulously stored and recorded.  Then one day Emmett makes an astonishing discovery: one of the volumes has his name on it.”
