Some secrets are buried in the past... but some refuse to stay there.
When a group of teens discovers the body of someone they thought they knew, the police call it suicide. But they don't believe it. Determined to uncover the truth, they dig into old secrets, and hidden stories their parents never wanted them to know.
What starts as a search for answers quickly becomes something far more extraordinary: a journey through time, into lives they never imagined, where the past and present collide in ways that could change everything.
As they piece together the mystery, the teens must decide what's worth saving, and what's best left behind.
A haunting, time bending tale of friendship, love, and the secrets that shape us.
