When he learns his friend Donny has committed suicide, he starts to investigate. When Donny's wife Olivia is found dead just weeks later, he knows something is terribly wrong. Soon there are more killings and if he isn't careful, he might be next. You can visit your past, Connie learns, but you can never go home again.
