Seeking refuge after personal tragedy, Tom Winter retreats to an isolated cabin in the Pacific Northwest. There he discovers an impossible secret—a tunnel through time leading to New York City in 1962. The past offers him a second chance at love, happiness, and a simpler life, but the gateway is not his alone. A relentless killing machine from humanity’s bleak future has also found the passage and will stop at nothing to preserve its own existence. Tom must confront the dangers of two eras to save both worlds.
