Chemist Redlaw is haunted, quite literally, by his own grief — until a spectral double offers him a devastating gift: the power to forget every wrong and sorrow he has ever known, and to pass that same forgetting on to everyone he meets. What begins as mercy curdles into something far darker, as those around him lose not just their pain but the compassion built from having felt it. Dickens's last and strangest Christmas book is a haunting meditation on memory, suffering, and why some things should never be erased — criminally overlooked next to A Christmas Carol.
