But when he reaches out to an old classmate, he sets into motion a sequence of events that'll make him question every decision he's ever made. After falling in love and throwing himself into a new life, he finds himself drawn to the very thing he moved so far north to escape.

After four years and a day living in this small, northern town, Trent just might come to understand what his life's all about.
