Michael Everett prides himself on making sense of the absurd and the arbitrary, and he'll be the first person to tell you so. He creates meaning where none exists; he writes. But daring to make himself the author of his own life carries a risk that he never imagined when he pens an anonymous poem to a girl he doesn't even know. That one impulse decision drives him down a blind path of dangerous secrets, and nothing can prepare him for a journey that plunges him to the bottom of his own fractured psyche, and back to the beginning of his own story. To the one place that he could never escape. Before he can find the light, he will confront the darkness.
