Corinne Renaud left home eight years ago to become a healer, a medical professional in charge of administering the cure for mental illness. But after a tragedy in the family, Corinne is forced to return home to pick up the pieces. Suddenly thrust with the responsibility of filling in someone's else shoes, Corinne begins to lose her grasp on her own identity as she discovers that her sister's life was not what she thought it was.
"The cure for mental illness has existed for a long time, but it was never enforced.
Until now.
I left my family and my hometown eight years ago, to pursue a career as a healer. I honestly thought I was going to help cure the world. Four years of medical school, that’s what they promised. That we were going to help make the world a better place.
But you can’t be a healer if you’re not cured yourself.
It wasn’t what I expected. The cure. It felt like the life had been sucked out of me. I could still remember what I felt like before, but that version of myself was suddenly gone. Like going from fully alive to only half alive.
After that, I thought they’d taken everything there was to take from me. I was wrong. "
