One small, seemingly insignificant act can change lives forever .....for generations. For a chosen few, a pocket watch holds mysterious power over new beginnings. The watch- belonging to Morgan's brother and was given to Morgan after his beloved brother's tragic death in a farming accident when they were children.....plays an integral part in the life of the one who holds it. Kerri Perry survived a car accident, but her childhood sweetheart did not. She has lived her life as a mere existence, for she carries the weight guilt and shame from that fateful night... ...that is, until she is bequeathed the pocket watch. She is a loner hiding from the world in her one-bedroom, third-floor apartment until the day a missed phone call changes her life forever. Kerri returns the stranger's call. Their initial conversation is tense, but the loner and the old man who placed the original call, Morgan, develop an intimate friendship founded on the stories Morgan shares with Kerri about his early life. Once their relationship moves from infrequent phone calls to in-person meetings at Morgan's lavish estate, Kerri learns something that once again changes her life.
