From Fabian Nicieza, Edgar Award finalist and co-creator of Deadpool, comes a psychological horror-thriller about one man's darkest secrets and the terrible acts they can inspire in the wrong hands... or mind.
At age sixteen, Grissom Vandemeer lost his memory and his family in a tragic car accident. Twenty years later, hoping to reclaim what he had lost, Vandemeer has developed a revolutionary process to turn memories into images and audio, in essence digitizing life experience into a scroll on your phone.

In his rush to prove its efficacy, Vandemeer experiments on himself and unwittingly unleashes all of the darkest secrets he’s buried inside his own scarred psyche, broadcasting them to the residents of his town. The guilts, mistakes, angers, and prejudices of his misspent youth are broadcast into the innocent minds of the small Pennsylvania town of Eboncross.

Now, Vandemeer must track down and retrieve these scattered memories before the townsfolk become corrupted by them. But what if some of his most violent memories have found their way into people already plagued by their own deadly desires? What if his memories are creating rapists, thieves and killers? In order to stop their escalating violence, Vandermeer will have to first come to terms with his own darkest sins.
