Aaron Rue is a 27-year-old detective, known for his sharp mind and unwavering commitment to solving cases. Living alone in a quiet apartment, his life seems perfectly ordinary-until the moments when reality slips through his fingers. As an expert detective, Aaron can solve the most complex cases, but he struggles with a more personal mystery-his own mind.
Behind closed doors, Aaron grapples with intense moments of disorientation, fear, and a growing sense of detachment from reality. At times, his life feels like a repetition of days, a prison where the line between the real world and his own fractured perception blurs. Flashbacks, shifting identities, and the haunting presence of shadowy figures leave him questioning what's true and who he really is. His forgotten past, his fading memories, and even his own reflection seem to be slipping away.
As Aaron tries to piece together his unraveling existence, he becomes entangled in a dangerous game that might expose his darkest secrets-and perhaps even his own destruction. This is a story of a man searching for himself in a world that no longer makes sense.
