While lacking greatness, this is a pretty good little story. The premise is unusual, and most of the plot is well-handled. The ending is a little cheap, but not excessively so. Worth the read.
A good little story of a future interplanetary society where people don't get murdered anymore, enemies just wipe out all their victim's memories back to age two. Or they commit suicide by doing the same thing to themselves. And the cops don't much care. It's up to the victims to find their assailant, if they can figure out who they used to be.

The characters are good and the mystery held my interest, with a hopeful ending.
