A year after the mysterious death of his wife, Professor Derek Flynn finds himself waking up, as if from a blackout, in the middle of a catastrophic and fatal disaster. Derek has no idea how he got there, but what’s even more inexplicable is that this has become a common occurrence. In fact, Derek has been lying to his estranged teenage daughter, Casey, about his puzzling disappearances for months. Desperate to get to the bottom of what’s happening to him, Derek reaches out to psychologist Alice Meyers seeking help to recognize the terrifying visions that haunt his dreams: imminent disasters, both natural and manmade, that Derek now feels he is somehow integral to. But with the FBI catching on to his connection with these disastrous events, a manhunt begins, and Derek finds himself tangled in a perplexing web. Stuck between being a fugitive and a messiah, and on the run in his pursuit for the truth, Derek will discover that there are no such things as coincidences.

Hello. My name is Heath Amodio. I’m a writer from Upstate New York. (Yes, there’s more to NY than the city. Just don’t ask people that live in the city.) I live with my amazingly spoiled dog Bella, and far too many comic books. Is that a thing? I’ve been a fan of fiction ever since my mother read me my first Hardy Boys book. I quickly transitioned from the Hardy Boys, Superfudge, Pippi Longstocking, and Treasure Island to Stephen King’s IT thanks to an aunt that clearly wanted to terrify me. It became my favorite novel, and one that I’ve read a dozen times. It’s kind’ve become a Mel Gibson must buy every copy of Catcher In the Rye type of situation. I won’t scare you off by telling you exactly how many different versions I own. 😳 My first taste of success was when I and five other writers had our comic books chosen for publication through Marvel's open submissions call. I’ve recently started a company called Hustle and Heart Films, where I work with 9 publishers and some of the greatest writers in the world, to help turn their books and comics into TV shows and movies. I’m absolutely humbled to be working with writers like Joe Lansdale, Cullen Bunn, Linda Addison, Greg Pak, Nancy Collins,, Brian Keene and more. We have 5 shows in development.
