After his wedding to Lisa, Alex’s world seemed to brighten as if in a burst of color, and the birth of their son Connor filled each day with new meaning. The three of them became a small, whole happiness. But then a sudden tragic death of Lisa shatters their fragile universe in an instant. Alex is crushed by grief, yet he puts himself back together—now he has to be for his six-year-old son both a father and a mother.
And one day, four strangers enter his life—two men and two women. They were never acquainted with Lisa, but somehow she, in a way, forever changed their lives. As he grows closer to them, Alex increasingly catches himself having strange, inexplicable feelings: could it be mystical déjà vu that undermines his familiar logic, or is reality itself trying to tell him that the world may not be as merciless and meaningless as he has grown accustomed to believing.
