ABSTRACT
The series begins with a "clean slate" trope: Sophie survives a supposed suicide attempt off a San Francisco ferry, leaving her with extreme amnesia. Her life—filled with a devoted venture-capitalist husband, a lavish home, and high-society connections—is presented as an ideal. However, as she begins to piece together her past, she discovers that her identity was a carefully curated facade even before the accident.
The central mystery hinges on whether Sophie's "perfect" life drove her to jump, or if she was pushed by those who claim to love her. This tension is amplified by the introduction of Thomas Baden, an undercover detective who reveals Sophie was leading a double life—including an affair and an identity as "Tess Caldwell".
