In the wake of a mysterious amnesia, a woman known only as Nancy Parks—recovered from a near-fatal collapse—struggles to piece together her past while growing increasingly uneasy about the intense attention of her doctor, Robert Denning. As she uncovers a chilling newspaper report linking her to a murder, she realizes her memory loss may be tied to a dangerous secret, and that Denning’s protectiveness might be hiding far more than she expected.
In the quiet aftermath of being rejected by her sorority, Judy finds unexpected solace in her diary—until her friends discover it and orchestrate a cruel prank during her initiation.

On the day before her wedding, Roberta Jameson is stranded with her broken-down car miles from her fiancé Charles Hendricks and the wedding rehearsal, until a charming stranger named Gene Winters offers help.
