Maxis Elizabeth Bishop was ultimately doomed to a life of misfortune and unavoidable melancholy for as long as she could remember. She relentlessly trudges through life bound by the emptiness, and inevitable solitude that seems to enclose her very being for the past 17 years of her existence.

However, when a student attending her school appears missing, everything begins to fall on her shoulders, as her whole world turns upside down.All Rights Reserved
