Dr. Clare Eccles, a brilliant neuroscientist and chair of the University Neuroscience Department, struggles to hide her Parkinson’s disease as she gathers the memories of a lifetime. Her protégé, the charismatic Dr. Gideon Wells, claims a groundbreaking discovery: the secret to how the brain forgets. Chai Lin, a sharp-eyed postdoc searching for her long-lost mother, uncovers a dangerous truth: Gideon’s data is a lie. As ambition collides with integrity, Dr. Eccles tries to construct a family, Chai Lin seeks her Chinese birth mother, and Gideon fights for scientific glory.
