Imprisoned inside his own collapsing psyche, Millhouse believes what lay beyond the veil separating life and eternity is the only path that can finally put his demons to rest, until an unlikely friendship with Anna, a young college student and aspiring novelist, reminds him of the importance of sharing the story that lies within all of us and has the potential to pull him from the depths into which he's allowed himself to plummet. As Anna's past is revealed, her ties to the decision that sent Millhouse spiraling out of control set events in motion that will change both of their lives forever. As redemption hangs in the balance, Millhouse must overcome his deepest regrets to face the truth that the vilest act of his past may have been the defining moment of salvation for a family torn apart by war and personal tragedy beyond description.
