When 16-year-old Nate Reverof attended his high school Winter Formal, he never would have guessed that his life would be forever-changed. As the night is drawing to a close, an unhinged former student enters the parking lot and begins to shoot at students standing at the door. Nate wakes up in a hospital bed and is told that he was the only victim of the shooting, taking a shot to the back of the head. The doctors explain that Nate has acquired a never before seen devastating neurological condition which keeps him unconscious for 364 days of the year, only awaking each year on the day of the formal. While in the hospital he meets a girl his age named Molly Jones and the two grow close during Nate's first 24 hours awake. She promises to meet back with him in exactly one year when he wakes again. This becomes a yearly ritual and the pair meet each year. As the years pass Nate begins to notice odd things about his condition and the doctors looking after him. He starts to suspect that there is more about the night of the formal that the hospital and staff are not telling him. While looking in the mirror on the 5th anniversary of the formal he notices that he has grown no facial hair and his face remains the same as his 16-year-old self. Alarmed, Nate stumbles across files that refer to him as "Test Subject: Reverof" as oppose to a patient. It's not long before Nate finds out that his entire life has been a lie and that there was no shooting the night of the formal. Will Nate be able to figure out the real reason why he's locked away in a hospital? Or will he spend the rest of his days unconscious in a hospital bed...
