Two women, Laurel and Daphne, with babies both named Chloe, meet in a support group for women suffering from postpartum depression. Their identities slowly merge and one is later found dead in her bathtub. One of them ends up at a mental hospital where she initially began work as an archivist and is later a patient claiming to be the one who is allegedly dead.

I found it very confusing to follow this plot and its alternating points of view from Laurel/Daphne. Adding to the necessary suspension of disbelief is the introduction of an elderly woman in the mental hospital whose history closely parallels the Laurel/Daphne story line. The conclusion defies logic.
