Synopsis

Death didn’t end my story—it set the stakes. I woke as a ghost, memories erased, bound to the man I once loved: Dr. Harrison, the forensic pathologist tasked with unraveling my brutal murder. As he examines my ruined body, I drift helplessly beside him, piecing together the truth of my death—and the life we almost shared. But the clock is ticking: seven days to reclaim my memories or disappear forever. Each revelation brings heartbreak, rage, and the aching hope that love might survive even death. When Harrison is abducted by my killer, I must make an unthinkable sacrifice—trading my own afterlife for a chance to save him. Will justice or love win, or will I vanish before I can say goodbye?
