Disappearances are the norm in this small town called Hiraeth, but there's no need to panic: everyone returns, mind a blank slate but otherwise unharmed. Reset. Nobody questions why or how. It's just how this town works.
Then Rhys Evans is found face down in the lake and everything crumbles.
Bodies of both the Reset and other members of the tight-knit community pile up. Eve and Tabby find themselves pulled further into the "why" of it all than they'd like as recent events recolour the past, bringing to light unavoidable truths.
One thing is certain: Rhys's body won't be this town's only dark secret to surface.
