**No one knows how it happened. But it'll change their lives forever . . .**

During a terrifying storm, Air France flight 006 - inexplicably - duplicates.

For every passenger, there are now two: a double with the same mind, body and memories.

Only one thing sets them apart - while one plane lands in March, the other doesn't arrive until June.

Nothing can explain this unprecedented event. But for each duplicated passenger, an impossible moment of reckoning awaits.

**If there are two of you, and just one life . . . who gets to live it?**
