SYNOPISIS
A little 'ditty'...
A forty-eight year old carpenter (Vinni Cross) stumbles upon an unusual antique mirror only to discover that it was designed to conceal a mystical time-travel portal. He quickly learns that once he steps through, he has traveled back exactly seven years into the past. There, he becomes an invisible ‘spirit’ that cannot be seen or detected.
To capitalize on his discovery, he contacts the only person he knows that he can trust...himself seven years younger. The two, he and his former self, embark on an intriguing adventure. With unlimited information from the future, Vinni @ 48 (present) and Vinni @ 41 proceed to instantaneously build a phenomenal empire.
The story takes a dramatic turn when Vinni @ 48 is suddenly forced to dive back into time when a full-scale nuclear war destroys the world in his time. He and his former 'selves' must redirect their efforts to prevent that event from occurring and to preserve the future. A series of ironic twists spark a mind-boggling quandary when their plan backfires and inadvertently causes a nuclear war to take place seven years sooner.
Vinni @ 48 suddenly finds himself trapped alone in a world consumed by seven years of nuclear winter. His only hope is that his former self, Vinni @ 42 - a spirit living in the past, can find a way to avert the nuclear war and restore the world in each respective place in time.
This could very well be Dave's best concept yet! The incredible surprise ending sets the stage for the first in a series of exciting MIRROR-MIRROR sequels.
