Jake Epping is a high school English teacher who makes extra money teaching adults in the GED program. He receives an essay from one of the students—a gruesome, harrowing first person story about the night fifty years ago when Harry Dunning’s father came home and killed his mother, his sister, and his brother with a hammer. Not much later, Jake’s friend Al, who runs the local diner, divulges a secret: his storeroom is a portal to 1958. He enlists Jake on an insane—and insanely possible—mission to try to prevent the Kennedy assassination.

A love story when you right down to it. Well told with a hint of suspense. Drags a bit in Part 4, but quickly picks back up again in the minutes leading up to the assassination. Well round ending, even if it seemed a bit cheesy.
