Sophie lies frozen in her hospital bed. Only able to blink and think she is the victim of locked in syndrome. When she receives a book for her 30th birthday from her grandfather a family secret which has remained hidden from her is unearthed, but she also has secrets of her own. Billy has suffered from a sleeping disorder his entire life. Over medicating himself on alcohol each night he is fighting his body's way of telling him there is more, that his evolution is not yet finished. There have been whispers down the ages of men untouched by time. Able to speak any language, fit into any society, disappearing and reappearing centuries later...the divine. Half a century ago a book was published. Masqueraded as an autobiography this book depicted the life of a man who was impervious to harm and unaffected by the sands of time. God or monster? Angel or the next step of man? Still he searches for more like him.
