Astrid Sundquist writes down what people say for a living. Every word, every stammer, every answer given under oath.

Then she comes to in a hospital bed in Duluth, Minnesota, and three days of her own life are gone. Friday, Saturday, Sunday. A nurse tells her she was awake for much of that time. She talked. She asked questions. She said things she has no memory of saying.

Everyone who was there remembers those days differently.

Her husband says she fell down the basement stairs on Saturday night. Her sister says Astrid came to her house on Friday, upset, and left before midnight. The old woman across the alley swears she saw Astrid in the backyard on Saturday around noon, barefoot in the cold, asking what day it was. A detective wants to know who answered Astrid's phone late on Friday night. And her doctors want to know why her injuries don't fit anybody's story.

Astrid can't remember. But she knows how people sound when they are reciting something they have rehearsed. And the more versions she collects, the more certain she becomes that someone she loves has rewritten those three days, and is counting on her never being able to read them back.

A tense, twisting psychological thriller about memory, loyalty, and the stories a family agrees to tell.
