Every twelve years, the inhabitants of Canaan have their memories erased in "the Forgetting." Only Nadia doesn't forget--she remembers the bloody chaos of the last Forgetting, and she is determined to stop the next one and save her family and city. Well-sustained suspense, believable characterization, a heroic protagonist, a hint of romance, and an unexpected but satisfying end twist make this a compelling read.
