Felicity Sloan has a past filled with darkness and trauma, which is rivaled only by the injustice, indignity, and adversity of her present. She has been through every treatment there is, and is coming to the uncomfortable conclusion that medicine and psychology simply do not have the tools to help her. There is one, radical option floating out on the fringe of medical science, and Felicity has come to believe this controversial treatment may be her only hope at achieving a measure of joy and peace in life. The Personhood Eradication Treatment was developed to make hardened, violent criminals easier to control. It has been promoted as a more humane alternative to capital punishment, but many in the medical community vehemently oppose it. The treatment will render the patient simple, compliant, and incapable of fending for themselves. It is a radical alteration of the structure of the brain, severely limiting the patient's capacity for higher reasoning, allowing the patient to exist in a frame of mind where the satisfaction of basic needs produces joy and satisfaction. Felicity is utterly alone in understanding her choice to voluntarily seek out this treatment. No one understands that when your very personhood has been twisted into an implement for your continued torment, it ceases to be a treasured possession. Nor do they understand that when your dignity has been fashioned into a cudgel that exists only to smash your hopes and aspirations, eradicating dignity sounds very appealing. Felicity longs for the simplicity of existence that the treatment ensures, and she will exert every ounce of her formidable will to secure access to this treatment. Follow the beginning of Felicity's journey to seek treatment, and grapple with the medical and ethical implications of receiving it. Along the way, she will connect with the staff at the treatment facility and find a deep intimacy with her new 'donor': the man that she must trust to care for her new, vulnerable self after she completes the treatment.
