A woman just out of college finishing with her Master’s degree begins to feel eerily strange in her own home and her own town. A man watches her profusely but never lets her see him. She’s a writer who enjoys traveling, collecting cassettes, and wandering aimlessly through book stores in her free time. Wherever she goes, he’s there. With a past she’d rather not revisit, she searches for the man down every street corner and when she finds herself in the grips of an infamous man, she fears more than her comfortability. Throughout all this, she's balancing her job as an editor and columnist for her local paper, Journal Sentinel.

A girl. It only takes one for Brone’s life to go ripping at the seams, down the line of stitches like it was never strong enough to uphold life, let alone his. She takes wrong turns and he’s led right back to her. But she was never the one he wanted to find himself drawn to. She’s all addiction and mystery and danger and she’ll ruin you if she has the chance. And she does. Brone’s vulnerability leaves him caught in a web of lies and when his father can hardly hold himself up after his mother passes of Marfan syndrome, he’s afraid he won’t be enough to keep his life together. And maybe he’s not.
