On her first day of medical school, student Elsie Clarke finds that her cadaver has come with a journal telling many stories of the cadavers heartbreak, trauma, miracles, and encounters with angelsall told through her body parts. The cadaver shares these stories to help heal others and help the young doctor become successful. Elsie learns that no life is ordinary, and as she chooses to honor the memory of the cadaver, she discovers uncanny parallels between her own life and the life lost.
