If you could live your life over again. . .
We all have fantasies about it. Especially men like Jeff Winston. At 43, he's trapped in a tepid marriage and a dead-end job. Until he has a sudden fatal heart attack and awakens in his eighteen-year-old body in 1963.
Staring at the Playboy centerfold on his college dorm room wall, Jeff Winston realizes that his memories of the next 25 years are intact. He knows the future of stocks like IBM and Xerox. He knows who will win the next Kentucky Derby. He's going to replay his life—living once again through the assassinations of the 1960s, Vietnam, Watergate, the Reagan Revolution.

If you could live your life over again. . .
We all have fantasies about it. Especially men like Jeff Winston. At 43, he's trapped in a tepid marriage and a dead-end job. Until he has a sudden fatal heart attack and awakens in his eighteen-year-old body in 1963.
Staring at the Playboy centerfold on his college dorm room wall, Jeff Winston realizes that his memories of the next 25 years are intact. He knows the future of stocks like IBM and Xerox. He knows who will win the next Kentucky Derby. He's going to replay his life—living once again through the assassinations of the 1960s, Vietnam, Watergate, the Reagan Revolution.
The odds against the Dodgers winning the 1963 World Series in four straight games are astronomical. But Jeff makes a bet, and with the money that brings him, he builds a multibillion dollar fortune, becomes one of the most powerful men in the world. . .
And again. . .
Until he turns 43 and dies again. When he wakens in 1963, he can make other choices. . .from uninhibited hedonism to a search for understanding. Or perhaps love, with a woman who, like Jeff, is a replayer. How many lives will they lead together? How many times must they lose each other and all they hold dear? And why have they been chosen to replay their lives?
And again. . .
As Jeff Winston replays his life—reclaiming a lost college sweetheart, raising children, trying to correct the mistakes he believes he made in earlier lives—you will experience the past twenty-five years from a fascinating new perspective. Not since Jack Finney's Time and Again has there been so gripping a novel of adventure, romance, and fascinating speculation on the meaning and nature of time.
