FreeIf you had a chance to fix a mistake from your past, would you take it? Alyson Levy would.
Guilt weighs heavy on former criminal “wheelman”, Alyson, who led an illicit life that left her shattered into pieces that would never fit together the right way again. That’s when she started hearing about it…a massive cross-country car race that grants the winner a chance to correct a single mistake in their life. But there’s a catch — each leg covers a different period in time. In addition to keeping the cars on the often-questianable (sometimes nonexistent) roads and staying ahead of competition, the drivers will have to contend with the world outside: medieval warriors, dinosaurs, natural disasters, even the far-flung future… it’s all a possibility. Only the one who survives it all will be proven the winner…and for an o[portunity to turn back time, Alyson will drive from the Bing Bang to the death knell of the universe.
