On the verge of death...
Two seemingly unrelated women meet as both face the prospect of death. Hanna, in her late seventies and in the advanced stages of cancer, has many regrets from the choices she has made as a mother and wife over the years. Karen, a divorced mother of two in her thirties, longs for the happiness she had for a brief time in her teens with the love of her life.
Between this world and the next...
While Karen has vivid dreams of her bittersweet past, Hanna finds herself having strange "episodes" where she seems to visit an idyllic otherworldly place. Her own youth and happiness aren’t all she finds there: a young man named Bobby joins her. Is Bobby merely a guide, a delusion, or something more?
It’s never too late for redemption...
With little time left, Hanna is determined to right a lifetime of wrongs. Family secrets rise to the surface and tragedy threatens to claim both women as they attempt to discover if love can last through all eternity.
