A Week and Some Change

Lucid and Awake, #1

Andrew, a loner, both by choice and by circumstance, is enamored by Tracy, the new bartender at his mother's restaurant. After learning that Tracy has died in a terrible car accident, he is devastated. But upon arriving at the restaurant to console his mother, he discovers that Tracy isn't dead after all – in fact, she is working her shift, and no one else seems to think anything of it. While trying to make sense of the situation, Andrew begins to experience an overwhelming sense of dread: something isn't right. He needs to decide whether to tell Tracy and risk sounding like a lunatic, or ignore what all his senses are telling him and enjoy what appears to be a second chance.
