Signed Copies
Signed copies of books are a personal touch that remind the reader of the real human being behind the book. The signature (and possibly a little inscription if we are lucky) represents the hundreds of hours and miles of actual and imagined travel that the writer journeyed to make the vision real, the experience real, and the book real. Signed copies are always by their nature in limited supply, but we promise to keep this page constantly changing with these rare treasures.

SIGNED COPY
Ori's holidays are an endless series of elaborately awful meals cooked by her one-time stepfather Dave's latest bride. Attended by a loose assemblage of family, Ori particularly dreads Grandma Elving (grandmother Dave's fouth wife) and her rhapsodizing about the Christmas she worked at Woolworth's in the 1950's. Sloan's plus-one to this year's meal is a medical student named Lassiter who finds more than meets the eye in Grandma Elving's detailed memories: he believes the specificity of the elderly woman's recollections is indicative of a traumatic flash bulb memory, the topic of his current lab work. TFBMs are caused by events so traumatic that they force the mind to relive the surrounding moments in extreme detail. As Ori and Lassiter team up to uncover what singular moment might be causing this in Grandma Elving, their relationship blossoms into something more than teamwork--and they discover that Grandma Elving's flash bulb memory is more unusual than they ever imagined.
