    Susan Macqueen was 12 years old when she accompanied her mother to see her friend Ms. Fairweather, the matron at the local nursing home, and from that day on she knew she wanted to be a nurse. A few years later, despite being told that her grades weren't good enough, Susan was accepted on the three-year nurses training course at Addenbooke's hospital in Cambridge.

    But then a teenage girl hobbles in on the stump of an amputated leg, collapses in his arms, and dies. She leaves behind a handbag with a barely legible diary of dreams. Haunted by his inability to save the girl, he photocopies the diary, hoping to discover why their lives intersected. The more Warner learns about the diary, the more he realizes that nothing is a coincidence. Even after he moves on to a psychiatry rotation—where a patient dies unexpectedly and where he somehow forgets the events of an entire day—thoughts of the girl, and her diary, linger. In need of a break, he pools his vacation time and travels to Italy. There he falls in love. He figures out the connections among the deaths, the diary, and his forgotten day, but too late—everything he has learned is erased. His last hope is to reconnect with the woman he loves across a void of lost memories. Only then can he reveal the true cause of his patients’ deaths, and save himself.
