Unlike news, lack of memories is a bad memory.
Everyone knew her better as a silent, conservative introvert. Only spoke when need arose. A young, petite lady always seen behind her desk, typing away on her keyboard. Perfect job, perfect salary, good apartment, ride and an almost normal life. Except for the part that she doesn't remember her life as a kid and only has one friend.
Poor thing suffered from amnesia when she was 12 years old. Couldn't remember who she was, her family; not even her nickname. Only her name. Forgetting the answer to 12 times 3 in an exam room can be tough enough; forgetting your whole childhood? A catastrophe.
Her past torments her 13 years later with the arrival of a crime master, who impersonates and frames her for huge crimes committed in Belovia. Crimes that puzzle the authorities, crime she certainly did not commit.
Will she remember her past? More so, will she uncover the identity of the master framing her? Follow Chloe Webber as she embarks on the biggest journey of her life: Discovering who she is. Literally.
A criminal mastermind makes a bold move against a wealthy client to put himself in a position to retire in comfort. He has no idea what he's up against when a young widow, desperate to make ends meet, sets her eyes on earning the bounty set on his head.
