Description
Emmett Farmer's life is about to take a dramatic turn. A mysterious letter summons him to begin an apprenticeship as a Bookbinder, a vocation shrouded in fear and superstition. Despite the risks, Emmett is drawn to the art of bookbinding, a skill that has long fascinated him.
Under the guidance of his enigmatic mentor, Seredith, Emmett learns the intricacies of hand-crafting elegant leather-bound volumes. Each book they create holds a unique and extraordinary memory, and the power to capture or erase them. As Emmett delves deeper into the world of bookbinding, he uncovers a dark underbelly of avaricious tradesmen who exploit their talents for sinister purposes.
When Emmett discovers that one of the books has his name on it, his entire understanding of his life is rewritten. This is a story about the power of memories, the danger of secrets, and the true cost of a mysterious craft.
