When suicide becomes a worldwide epidemic, the only known cure is The Program, a treatment in which painful memories are erased, a fate worse than death to Sloane who knows that it will steal memories of her dead brother and boyfriend. - Simon and Schuster
In this âgripping tale for lovers of dystopian romanceâ (Kirkus Reviews), true feelings are forbidden, teen suicide is an epidemic, and the only solution is The Program.
Sloane knows better than to cry in front of anyone. With suicide now an international epidemic, one outburst could land her in The Program, the only proven course of treatment. Sloaneâs parents have already lost one child; Sloane knows theyâll do anything to keep her alive. She also knows that everyone whoâs been through The Program returns as a blank slate. Because their depression is goneâbut so are their memories.
Under constant surveillance at home and at school, Sloane puts on a brave face and keeps her feelings buried as deep as she can. The only person Sloane can be herself with is James. Heâs promised to keep them both safe and out of treatment, and Sloane knows their love is strong enough to withstand anything. But despite the promises they made to each other, itâs getting harder to hide the truth. They are both growing weaker. Depression is setting in.
And The Program is coming for them.
