Description
About the Book
"Jack Kelly remembers everything about his wife and children. The wonderful smell of his wife's hair, the way she whispers to him at night. His three children running through the house, the sound of their laughter. That was his life before the accident. His near-death experience left him in the in-between space, somewhere between this world and whatever comes next. But he recovered and woke up as his thirteen-year-old self. The doctors tell him it is a false memory, a result of his fall and the insult to his brain from his injuries. "How can a thirteen-year-old boy have a wife and three children?" They ask. But how can he see and hear dead people, demons, ghosts, and shadowy creatures? And if they exist, then is it so inconceivable to believe that Jack's life as a 47-year-old man with a wife and children existed too? Jack begins his journey to find out why and how. And, in the end, he resolves to find his way back to his true existence, back to his family."--Back cover.Book Synopsis
