REWRITING IN PROGRESS (1-3 Done)
Grayson Marshall has spent his life battling with demons; some born of trauma, others forged in the depths of his own mind. Diagnosed with bipolar disorder and haunted by a troubled childhood, his fragile world unravels after a reckless night of drinking ends in a DUI. To avoid jail time, his father, Robert Marshall, a formidable yet deeply flawed attorney, commits him to a psychiatric facility.
But what begins as a brief stay quickly morphs into something far more enduring. Grayson finds himself trapped not only within the sterile walls of the institution but inside the labyrinth of his fractured mind. There, he meets Ronan Blackwell, a fellow patient with scars of his own. Though the rules forbid personal connections, Ronan becomes Grayson's unlikely anchor, guiding him through the chaos both within and without.
In a place where reality blurs and healing comes at a cost, Grayson must confront the shadows that have stalked him for years. The fiercest battles are waged in silence, deep within the mind. Will he find redemption or be consumed by the very demons he's spent a lifetime outrunning?
