Spoilers ahead

After a devastating fire leaves her body scarred and her memory fractured, 20-year-old Micky begins a slow, uncertain road to recovery. Waking in a hospital with severe burns and reconstructive surgery, she discovers she cannot recognize the people around her. Photographs of friends and family do little to jog her memory, and the doctors confirm only that she lives in London while hinting at a past shrouded in loss: her parents died in a car accident when she was a child, and her aunt, Elinor, who had cared for her all those years, is no longer alive. The person who now guards her fate is Julia, Elinor’s longtime personal assistant, who steps in as her guardian and takes her home, where the mystery of Micky’s life only deepens.
