A brilliant neuroscientist consumed by her obsession with memory manipulation, Lucia had spent her final years pushing everyone away, drowning in research that no one understood.</p><p>For Maya, a struggling documentary filmmaker, the loss is tangled with years of estrangement and questions she'll never get to ask.</p><p><b>Until the encrypted video arrives.</b></p><p>Six months after the funeral, Maya watches her mother sit in a sterile room, terrified, insisting someone has stolen her research. Claiming she's being hunted. Claiming she's going into hiding.</p><p><b>The timestamp reads: two weeks ago.</b></p><p>When a Supreme Court justice suddenly recants a career-defining decision with no explanation, exhibiting signs of severe disorientation, Maya finds his name buried in her mother's final research notes.
