How would you be different if your most traumatic memory was erased?
Detective Jasmine West is determined to find justice for two dead women. Putting her career on the line to prove her hunch she is thrown into a world where people ease their pain by manipulating memory. With a lifetime of bad memories, mistakes and regrets, Jasmine struggles with the claim that a doctor can use neurosurgery to cut the strings of fate and rewire someone’s history. As Jasmine interviews patients at The Moving Forward Neuroscience Clinic and desperately tries to find evidence to use against her suspect she learns that nothing is as fragile as reality. Forced to examine who deserves to be released from the burden of truth and who she might be without her worst memories Jasmine races against time to capture a serial killer before he marries his next victim.
Access to The Moving Forward Neuroscience Clinic and their patented procedure puts Jasmine in a position of power. The United States army is eager to get their hands on the twenty four second cure to give soldiers affected by PTSD the gift of amnesia. Jasmine knows firsthand what happens when a soldier brings the war home but helping the army means crossing the line as a cop and betraying the trust the clinic has placed in her.
