Jake Epping es un profesor de ingles en una preparatoria en Lisbon Falls, Maine, quien ademas complementa su salario dando clases nocturnas para adultos. Un dia, Jake recibe un ensayo escrito por uno de sus estudiantes--una aterradora historia sobre una noche de hace cincuenta anos, en la que el padre de Harry Dunning asesino a su esposa y a dos de sus hijos con un martillo. Harry, quien escribe el ensayo, logro escapar con solo una herida en la pierna, que hasta ese dia le causa problemas al caminar.

Poco despues, Al, el propietario de un restaurante local y amigo de Jake, le cuenta un secreto: el almacen del restaurante es un portal a 1958. Asi es como Jake se encuentra en medio de la aventura mas arriesgada de su vida: impedir el asesinato del presidente John F. Kennedy. En esta nueva vida, Jake--ahora George Amberson--emprende la busqueda del solitario Lee Harvey Oswald entre canciones de Elvis, autos de moda y humo de cigarrillos, ayudado por una bella bibliotecaria llamada Sadie Dunhill, quien se convertira en el amor de su vida.

ON NOVEMBER 22, 1963, THREE SHOTS RANG OUT IN DALLAS, PRESIDENT KENNEDY DIED, AND THE WORLD CHANGED. WHAT IF YOU COULD CHANGE IT BACK?

In this brilliantly conceived tour de force, Stephen King--who has absorbed the social, political, and popular culture of his generation more imaginatively and thoroughly than any other writer--takes readers on an incredible journey into the past and the possibility of altering it.

It begins with Jake Epping, a thirty-five-year-old English teacher in Lisbon Falls, Maine, who makes extra money teaching GED classes. He asks his students to write about an event that changed their lives, and one essay blows him away--a gruesome, harrowing story about the night more than fifty years ago when Harry Dunning's father came home and killed his mother, his sister, and his brother with a sledgehammer. Reading the essay is a watershed moment for Jake, his life--like Harry's, like America's in 1963--turning on a dime. Not much later his friend Al, who owns the local diner, divulges a secret: his storeroom is a portal to the past, a particular day in 1958. And Al enlists Jake to take over the mission that has become his obsession--to prevent the Kennedy assassination.

So begins Jake's new life as George Amberson, in a different world of Ike and JFK and Elvis, of big American cars and sock hops and cigarette smoke everywhere. From the dank little city of Derry, Maine (where there's Dunning business to conduct), to the warmhearted small town of Jodie, Texas, where Jake falls dangerously in love, every turn is leading eventually, of course, to a troubled loner named Lee Harvey Oswald and to Dallas, where the past becomes heart-stoppingly suspenseful, and where history might not be history anymore. Time-travel has never been so believable. Or so terrifying.
