Would it be a blessing, a super power or a curse?Cooper Jackman hides his hyper memory to maintain a normal life. He deliberately fails at school and seeks solace in sports, using his photographic memory in his career as a professional ballplayer.When a crushing injury, a horrific tragedy and a decade of struggle derail his life, he must learn to cope with the new reality that he may never be more than a bored, divorced, middle aged has-been with a dead-end job. Haunted by a secret from his childhood, harassed by a mysterious messenger from a first love long ago lost and gripped by a painful memory so intense it threatens his sanity, he must escape from the events that fill his mind so intensely as if they happened yesterday. He must either come to terms with the loss of his true love or dare to reach back into the reality in his mind to try and right the wrongs of the past.Can he find a way to utilize his perfect recall to recreate his own past, revisit his worst memory and change for the better? Can he do all that and keep a grip on his present-day life, career and family? Cooper must figure it out before the tragedies of the past overrun his ability to live in the present and ultimately destroy any hope of a positive future.
