Una bomba a Roma, un flash di luce bluastra e il mondo del fotografo Josh Ryder esplode. Da quell'istante, niente sarà più lo stesso.

Josh, perseguitato da questi flashback di vite precedenti, vaga in cerca di risposte sul mistero della reincarnazione, per imbattersi infine negli scavi della professoressa Gabriella Chase: il rinvenimento di una tomba antica, circondata da un potente mistero che minaccia di mescolare passato e presente.
