The Folsom Rewind

Edgar is a forlorn husband drinking his troubles away. Sally is his angry wife. Can they work out their problems in this action-filled adventure that navigates the course of time . . . backward? From present-day Folsom to the goldrush era, you'll meet memorable characters like Joe, a Folsom Prison inmate and his cellmate, Smiley; Gertie, a good-natured elementary school teacher of Maidu origin; Hank, a hard-working housecleaner with a questionable past; and Jesse, a gregarious and heroic gunslinger.

Remarkably, they're all somehow connected in the space-time continuum, which details some of Folsom's rich history, such as Johnny Cash's iconic performance at Folsom Prison in 1968. Time ticks on relentlessly, but in The Folsom Rewind it wiggles and wags, twists and turns, zigs and zags more mysteriously than ever . . .
