The Living Memory

Format: Paperback

Condition: Standard Secondhand — £44.34
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Two girls are connected across time by their uncanny powers of memory.

Io is a gifted fourteen-year-old who can replay memories, reliving her favourite moments just for fun or repeating her social disasters to work out exactly what went wrong.

But when Io starts to use her gifts to avoid real life, she discovers powerful new abilities and a doorway into the past.

Slipping backwards through time, Io becomes the ghostly companion of her ancestor, Talia Lampeter, a seventeen-year-old mesmerist's assistant in Victorian London.

Talia is struggling to find her place in society and doesn't have time to worry about a ghostly girl who claims to be from the distant future.

In 1853 superstitions are running riot. Beautiful mystics, charming mesmerists and mysterious masked performers are bewitching the parlours and palaces of London.

Bound together by their strange talents, Io and Talia must decide how they want to live. Both of them have lost their way, but learning how to use their gifts could change their lives forever.
