Geoff, a gregarious family man, and usually the life of the party, is behaving oddly and making bad decisions. He's always been a reliable presence, an energetic sports lover, and a solid friend. It's what made Karly fall in love with him all those years ago. But now, something's not right with him.

Geoff is apathetic, missing deadlines at work, drinking too much, and losing friends. His family, angry and scared, is left reeling with the aftermath of his peculiar behavior as it seeps into every area of Geoff's life, unable to be hidden anymore.

One catalytic event steers their lives in an unexpected, yet beneficial direction, full of twists and turns, as new symptoms appear and paint a sharper picture of Geoff's troubles. Reluctantly, he follows well-intentioned professional advice while his wife and doctors continue to search for answers-only to uncover an untimely diagnosis. Faced with life-altering decisions, the couple wrestles with resetting expectations in the prime of their lives.

Inspired by true events, No Fault of His Own is an emotional and relevant story about a good man with bad luck, his tenacious wife, and their devoted family. Blended with fatherly life lessons and a hint of 80s classic rock, this medical mystery unfolds with an odd set of symptoms, the obstacles in marriage, the reality of friendship, the agony of loss and the hope of doing the right thing.

"A true love story! An honest, raw, and sobering account of a family's search for answers in a world where FTD is often misdiagnosed and misunderstood. A must-read for all of us, especially healthcare professionals and family members. No one can deny how fascinating, mysterious and complicated the human brain can be."
