Das Licht der Vergessenen

Romantasy · German original edition

Some memories burn. Some eat their way into the soul. And some no one can bear.

The archivist of the forgotten knows the bitter-almond taste better than anyone else in Mandelbach — because she is the last to keep the names of those the world has wished away. Inconvenient. Unasked for. Indispensable. Every day she drinks the almond tea that keeps the town alive, and she knows every bitter aftereffect no one else can stomach.

Then he is simply there. A man with no face in the town’s memory. A man nobody knows, nobody misses, whose name appears in no record. And when she lays her hand on his forehead, she feels something in the world break — quietly, irreversibly, and so beautifully that it hurts.

Between dying memory lights and the sweet poison of the almond tea, something grows that defies every order of the world: a love that, where memory is currency, demands the highest price there is. Forgiveness. Of herself. Of him. Of the town.

But Mandelbach has an account still open. And the bitter-almond groves hunger for the last few who still have something to lose.

When the last light goes out, only the question no one is allowed to ask remains:

Who still remembers you — when you have forgotten yourself?
