This book is the result of a collaboration between the artist, Rebecca Forster and poet, Alan Baker. The art is evocative of Milan, where Forster has lived for thirty years, and European art from the Greeks onwards. Baker has reflected in his prose-poems what Forster has done in her artwork, attempting to mirror its craft, skill and imaginative reach. The poems have been translated into Italian and the Italian text follows the English version.

A horrific accident introduces a frightening supernatural presence into a young woman''s life, altering both her past and future. Alexandra Drummond''s life is forever changed by a car wreck that kills her parents and sister. Ironically, recovering from her emotional and physical scars is not her biggest challenge. She is also haunted by Azrael, the angel of death. On the morning of the accident, Alex watches as Azrael takes the souls of her family. And the visions keep coming. A man with oily black hair in a pinstripe suit appears to Alex in the hospital, outside her high school, and in the woods near her campsite. She worries that she''s crazy, though Azrael appears to be just as threatened by her ability to see him. She confides in her doctor and friends and, while they appear to believe her, they are unable to help Alex banish death. Midway through the book, the narrative takes an unexpected twist and Alex''s recovery is overshadowed by the realization that she could bring her family back to life. But Azrael is determined to stop Alex''s meddling and she must enlist the help of her remaining family and friends if there is any hope for success. "The author''s plot twist is agreeably surprising and propels the supernatural story into the world of mystery" -Kirkus Reviews Missed Memories placed as a Semi-Finalist in the 2018 Faulkner Wisdom Competition
