The Lodestone

It was called the storm of the century by some but, for Jonah, it was just another night until the roof blew in. Tough, callous, and a veteran of many a foreign and domestic war, he was not the kind of guy to give a damn. Yet a serious injury during his last call of duty has left him questioning his past actions, so he is determined to return to the scene of one major crime of passion in search of some sort of resolution. But a major hurricane has other plans, and he is in for a surprise. Although her home is miraculously intact and one room in particular just as she left it, the woman he seeks has disappeared. In his attempt to find her, he discovers that he must embark upon a journey that defies both time and space, a journey into the unfamiliar country of her memories. This is made possible through an odd collection of talismen and is as disconcerting as it is life changing. With each new memory comes a lesson to be learned via her search for perfect love, and love is not something that Jonah does well.
