Jeff Johnston works as a historical researcher for a Civil War novelist. On a cold winter night, he encounters Annie, a young woman plagued by vivid nightmares that won't stop. Her dreams are so intense they begin to consume Jeff's thoughts as well. He becomes determined to help her find relief from these relentless visions. Together they travel through Civil War battlefields, now quiet and empty. As they visit these historic sites, Jeff and Annie grow closer to each other. But their deepening connection comes with complications. Annie's dreams seem tied to something larger than either of them understands. Jeff faces a choice between his feelings for Annie and obligations that could tear them apart. Their journey through the war-torn landscape becomes both a search for healing and a test of their bond.
