Original work: A Missing Memory by kitsunerei88

[michelel72]

A Missing Memory by kitsunerei88 is casefic -- the narrator is a public defender in a magical-urban setting. A man has been charged with murder, and his memory of the event has been removed.

The worldbuilding is subtle but feels comprehensive. The real star of the story is the legal system itself.

Original work; 11k words; gen. (Background het pairings are referenced.) No archive warnings apply.

Additional content notes, including light spoilers:

As noted, the story investigates a murder. A character is incarcerated with adequate but substandard care. Intimate partner violence is referenced. Three characters undertake a minor, ritualized act of self-harm.
