Jennifer fixes people. As a physical therapist, she knows exactly how to stabilize broken bones and heal muscles. But her own wounds, the visible ones on her skin and the invisible ones in her soul, she's buried deep down. She thinks she's a dead end, unable to give anyone a future.
Then she meets II, the masked, brutal heartbeat monster of the cult band Sleep Token. Behind the mask, he's a guy fighting against the deafening silence in his head, convinced he drags everyone down into his darkness.
What starts as a cautious encounter leads Jen to rainy Suffolk, to the band's old vicarage, a place full of music, secrets, and intense closeness. But the closer they get, the louder their fears become.
Are they like Aqua Regia, gold and acid dissolving each other? Or can two people who think they're broken create something together that's stronger than any biological perfection?
A story about having the courage to let yourself be consumed, so you can finally become whole.
