When Sarah Wright's day begins moving backward, she must uncover the truth about her mother's death before time catches up with her. 

★----★----★

It's no surprise that chronically late Sarah Wright wakes up late. Unfortunately for her, she's about to blow the opportunity of a lifetime to interview the reclusive Professor Anthrop. But, when she arrives to find the professor has died under mysterious circumstances, she realizes that time is on her side in more ways than one. 

As the clocks begin to tick backward, resetting her day, she soon discovers that the professor's death is tied to her mother's fatal accident two decades prior. What she doesn't know is that those closest to her have been keeping secrets that threaten her life, and unless she uncovers the truth about her mother's death, the clock will stop forever.
