He supported her when she bought her homein California wine country, when she grieved the deaths of her parents, whenshe built her career as a psychotherapist, and even when she overcame alifelong fear of dogs to adopt a rescued greyhound.
They never married or shared a home—by choice. They were lovers and confidants,deeply committed to one another. Yet, they only met on Tuesdays and Fridays.
And then, one day, he vanished.
When Marsh finally tracked him down, she discovered the unimaginable: he hadsuffered a catastrophic stroke. His memory was gone. He could no longer speak.And he was living with a woman who knew him by a different name.

In the end, she discovered a universal reality: we all live with someunknowable mystery. The question is—do we spend our lives searching in vain foran answer, or do we find a version of the truth we can live with, and live withit?
