Christine Lucas lives one day at a time virtually the same day over and over again because she cannot retain any memory overnight. Every day Ben, her husband, must introduce himself. She doesn't remember her son or her best friend. Dr. Nash is helping her with her memory. He calls after Ben leaves for work to remind of her journal. There she learns about her life; and, bit by bit ads more each day. Gradually begins to see inconsistencies in what Ben tells her. In her journal she writes of her love for Ben. Why did she write "Don't Trust Ben" at the beginning. She loves him. He tells of the death of her soldier son in Afghanistan. Reconnecting with an old friend brings more inconsistencies in what Ben tells her. She doesn't know what to do especially as she can barely hold onto her thoughts. A psychological thriller.
