Summary: | "Find Me is the story of a young woman reckoning with the ghosts of her past in a post-epidemic America"-- Joy spends her days working the graveyard shift at a grocery store outside Boston and nursing an addiction to cough syrup, an attempt to suppress her troubled past. When a sickness that begins with memory loss and ends with death sweeps the country, Joy, for the first time in her life, seems to have an advantage: she is immune. Admitted to a hospital in rural Kansas, she sees a chance to escape her bleak existence by submitting to peculiar treatments and following seemingly arbitrary rules, forming cautious bonds with other patients. |
