'The world forgot her day, just like they forgot her.'
Born on February 29th, Elara officially "exists" only once every four years. Every time the date passes, the world seems to forget her - her name vanishes from records, her face fades from memories and her very presence begins to blur.
On the fifth leap year since losing her parents, Elara boards a cruise which is the last place she was seen in a faded old photo with her parents. There, she plans to end her life, certain that no one would notice she's gone.
But, just before she jumps into the sea, a mysterious message flashes on her phone. Short, but striking;
"If you jump, the world will never know what it lost."
That message not only saves her, but draws her into a greater mystery; about who she really is, why the world forgets her and who the "unknown" is... someone who knows far too much about her.
