Excerpt
"Never trust anyone in this town, Raya. Not a single soul. No one knows who you are. Your parents and I have kept your secret for 20 years for a reason. We need to make sure that secret stays hidden, especially while you are here in this town. If anyone realizes that you have memories of that day – that you were actually here – we lose the advantage of keeping your identity hidden. Please tell me you understand the importance of that, Raya."
