Official synopsis Publisher
Every town has one and every one has a story. This is just one of them, with a “Twilight Zone” style twist thrown-in for good measure. “Up ahead at the sign post…” They say you can never go back and maybe you shouldn’t. Thirty two years after he left his hometown, Jonathan Moran returns to visit his dying father and spends a long afternoon driving down “memory lane” only to find a portal to the past and maybe a date with destiny. This is a story of a town the way it was and never will be again. And a tavern like thousands of others across America that shaped many a memory and many a life.
