She never aspired to be much, but at 26, she feels there has to be more to life than what sits around her. One day, an odd fellow enters her dull existence; he introduces himself as Theodore Larkin, but Avril is suspicious of his strange demeanor and dialect.

That’s when things start to get weird. The two of them are hurdled from one realm to another with no warning or explanation as to what's happening. They witness past lives, some familiar and some not so familiar, disturbing situations, uncomfortable moments, and a multitude of crimes. On their adventures, they come up with every possibility they can about what is happening to them. In the meantime, feelings start to grow, and this unlikely duo becomes rather fond of each other. Listen to find out where the hell Avril and Theo are.
