Island myth, or guarded secret...destiny lures Jonathan home. Jonathan's ten-year relationship with Paul has lost its spark. In a last-ditch effort to rekindle the passion they once shared, Jonathan rents a beachside cottage in Tybee Island, Georgia, a tiny coastal islet he had abandoned long ago. But the romantic surprise backfires when his partner rushes off to woo a high-profile client, leaving Jonathan alone and brokenhearted. He drowns his loneliness with lots of alcohol, but nothing eases his gut-wrenching pain. That's when a swimmer caught in a riptide catches Jonathan's attention. Without a second thought, he races to the water's edge, trudging through seawater before diving headlong into the surf. He too falls victim to the raucous undertow, fighting to reach the surface. Then a powerful force slams into Jonathan, causing him to blackout. Upon regaining consciousness Jonathan realizes he's surrounded by horrified Beachcombers, all staring at his half-naked body. How did Jonathan get to shore? What happened to the drowning swimmer? And who is the mysterious old woman gaping at him from afar?
