Cole Ryan is bored. He's lived in the same small town his whole life and has the same job. Nothing changes there and every morning when he goes for a run, those thoughts echo on repeat through his mind. Until today, on this day, something big happens and if he survives it, his life won't be the same. Maybe boring old Hickory Crossing wasn't so bad after all.

Driving in the rain, on his way to a delivery, Bobby Sanders is focused on the road, when a flash of blue light in the distance catches his eye. He witnesses a bolt of lightning strike a man running on the road ahead of him. He never suspected that bolt of lightning could change both their lives, not just the poor guy who was blown out of his shoes right in front of him.

When the persistent sound of whispering won't go away, Cole questions his sanity. But maybe he's not the only one experiencing strange things.
