Based on Italy's Doc: Nelle tue mani, Doc stars Parker (Deadwood) as Dr. Amy Larsen, a hard-charging Chief of Internal Medicine who, following a car accident, cannot remember the past eight years of her life — including the facts that she and her doctor husband Michael (The Affair's Omar Metwally) are now divorced… that their son tragically died… she was sneaking off for hook-ups with younger colleague Jake (Queen of the South's Jon Ecker)… and that arch rival Richard (Party of Five's Scott Wolf) did a very bad, potentially career-ending thing… that only Amy had been witness to.
The cast also boasts Amirah Vann (How To Get Away With Murder) and Anya Banerjee (The Blacklist).
