Seventeen-year-old Etta Lark is desperate to live outside of the corrupt culture, but grapples with the guilt of an accident that has left her mother bedridden in the city’s asylum. When Madame threatens to put her mother up for auction, a Craewick practice in which a “criminal's" memories are sold to the highest bidder before being killed, Etta will do whatever it takes to save her. Even if it means rejoining the Shadows, the rebel group she swore off in the wake of the accident years earlier.
To prove her allegiance to the Shadows and rescue her mother, Etta must steal a memorized map of the Maze, a formidable prison created by the bloodthirsty ruler of a neighboring Realm. So she sets out on a journey in which she faces startling attacks, unexpected romance, and, above all, her own past in order to set things right in her world.

My Review: I had high hopes for this title. The use of memories was a new concept that I haven't read a lot about so I was very excited to get my hands on this one. However, that excitement soon died a horrible death when I actually started the story. I ended up giving up on this one early on unfortunately. This had way to much information thrown at me right at the start of the book and it was just too much! The insta-love was horrible and this story just didn't elate any kind of emotion from me. Overall, I wanted to love it but it just didn't work for me at all.
