In the not-too distant future, a plague has wiped out most of humanity. James Cole (Aaron Stanford), a drifter, is tapped to go back into the past (his past, our present) to prevent the pandemic from happening. He teams up with Dr Cassandra Railly (Amanda Schull) in an effort to figure out how the plague starts and how to stop it. Riveting and complex, with great characters, especially Jennifer Goines (Emily Hampshire) – a person who may be a prophet or maybe just insane.
