Bill Miller lives a lonely widower's life. After the unsolved disappearance of his only child, followed shortly by the death of his wife, he's spent the past three decades gradually isolating himself from his neighbors, the news, and the world at large. When a thunderstorm blossoms into an unexpected tornado, he knows his dilapidated house won't stand up to its fury. He's more than willing to close the book on his earthly existence, anyway.
What would you do differently?
But when the furious winds fade, he finds himself waking up to a strange afterlife in the form of a moment forgotten in time, in a mysteriously restored house and the body of a younger Bill. A time when his wife and daughter should still be alive, yet are curiously absent. Armed with the knowledge of the ending that awaits them all, Bill searches for a path to a better outcome for his family.
Would anything change, in the end?
But to do so, he must dig deep into the shadows of the past, to face his own failings and seek answers to the questions that haunt his older self. All the while, reality shifts around him, with each step forward dredging up a new nightmare. Can he fight his wretched future by righting the wrongs of the past? Or will he find that his hands are tied by the threads of fate, and that you really can't go home again?
