A serialized mystery-thriller about displaced passengers grappling with impossible displacement and a sense of cosmic purpose, balancing family reconnection against mounting supernatural dread.

After landing from a turbulent but routine flight, the crew and passengers of Montego Air Flight 828 discover five years have passed in what seemed like a few hours. As their new realities become clear, a deeper mystery unfolds and some of the returned passengers soon realize they may be meant for something greater than they ever thought possible.
