Hannah Dory sits in Belman Psych while doctors tell her she suffers from hallucinations and delusions. She knows they are wrong. She travels back to 1347, where she lives in a starving village during a brutal winter. In the past, Hannah must steal food from the baron's castle to save everyone she loves. Getting caught means hanging. In the present, Jordan, an abnormal psychology student, might be the only person who believes her story. Hannah faces an impossible choice. If she stops traveling back in time, her sister dies in 1347. If she keeps returning to the past, she might never escape to her present life. Jordan struggles to understand what is real. Hannah's time grows short as the danger increases in both worlds.
