A decaying city known for its underground clubs, art scenes, and haunting beauty, juxtaposed against the sadness that permeates its streets. The time is modern-day, where technology and despair intermingle.

Lila Hart, a promising art student, has always hidden her turbulent past behind bright colors on canvas. After suffering a devastating personal loss - the brutal murder of her sister - she spirals into a world of grief and self-obliteration. Lila's coping mechanism leads her into the arms of the city's underground art scene where she meets Adrian Black, a brooding, talented artist with his own dark secrets and obsessions.

As Lila and Adrian's connection deepens, they draw closer to the truth behind each other's pain. Adrian carries the scars of childhood abuse from his father, a once-renowned artist whose career was destroyed by addiction. His art is the only way he knows how to express his anguish, but it often teeters on the brink of madness.
