This story explores the possibility of knowing someone when you receive something of theirs. Could it possibly connect two strangers who don't know anything about each other?
Donating blood was the last thing on Justin Hitchcock's to-do list but he was persuaded into doing it by a female doctor during a blood drive week on the campus where he was a guest lecturing.
A month later, Joyce Conway suffers a miscarriage and receives a blood transfusion in hospital. After she leaves hospital, she somehow knows things now that she didn't know before. She can suddenly rattle off facts about architecture which previously were unknown to her. She sees images of people in her mind and she doesn't know who they are, but yet, some part of her, knows them, loves them...
Is this mysterious connection only something that Joyce experiences or does Justin have similar experiences too? What is this mysterious connection that they share?
