Summary
Nico Minoru can't remember a life before The Gibborim Asylum for Psychiatric Rehabilitation. She can't remember a routine outside the dull, mundane existence she trudges through each and every day. The only solace she finds within the white-walled, high-security institute is Gertrude Yorkes, a young woman with purple hair and a horrific condition that sends her into fits of unexplainable, agonizing pain. With every new attack Gert suffers, Nico fears more and more that this disease will steal from her the one person who means something to her. That it will leave her frighteningly and utterly alone.
But when a strange and beautiful new patient arrives demanding answers the doctors won't give, Nico finds her perception of reality uprooted. Karolina Dean draws her in like a magnet, awakens in Nico a drive to push forward she can't remember having ever felt before. And as the two grow closer, Nico suddenly finds herself tossed dizzyingly onto a time-sensitive quest: together, she and Karolina must rush to find a cure for Gert's mysterious illness before it kills her, and subsequently discover the truth behind their missing memories--who they really are--before they lose themselves to Gibborim entirely.
