In this light city wrapped in neon lights and data flows, memory is no longer private property, but a commodity that can be read, traded and even rewritten.
Lin Jing, an "echo weaver" who wanders the underbelly of the city, makes a living by exploring the memory fragments left behind by others. His own past is a blank shrouded in thick fog.
A mysterious disappearance commission involved him in a fatal chase across the black and white lanes of the city. The girl he is looking for has a terrifying talent that can subvert the world; and the one who is chasing him is an iron-fisted judge who firmly believes that memory cannot be tarnished, an old enemy closely connected with his hatred of exterminating his family.
When the dusty memories begin to peel off, and when the truth of the world screams in the echoes, Lin Jing must make a choice: indulge in the beautiful lies being woven, or embrace the cruel truth that can tear him apart?
This is a story about searching. Looking for a girl, looking for a past, and looking for the final answer to what it means to be a human being on the ruins of memory.
