About the book
In 2011, Jake Epping, a divorced English teacher at a high school in Lisbon Falls, Maine, is called to the diner run by his friend Al Templeton, who is suddenly dying of lung cancer. In the pantry, Al shows him a portal into September 1958. Every trip lands at the same moment, and the traveler emerges in the present only two minutes later. Al has been planning to stop the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in Dallas in 1963, hoping to spare the country the Vietnam War, and he urges Jake to take over the mission.
