Synopsis

Not all prisons have bars.
Not all ghosts are dead.
And some love stories are written in the moments between memory and truth.

After a devastating accident fractures her memory, Lucy Adams is left with strange visions, emotional gaps, and a medical proxy that strips her of the right to trust her own instincts. Everyone says it’s for her safety. That she’s too fragile to make decisions. That the things she sees aren’t real.

But Lucy knows better. Even if she can’t explain how.

Then he arrives.

Vincent is electric. Unnervingly familiar. The moment he appears, something inside her stirs—sharp, visceral, and impossible to ignore. With him, time feels elastic. Reality bends. And buried memories start to claw their way to the surface.

She starts seeing a woman—elegant, haunting, and unshakably calm—who never stays long, but always leaves Lucy with cryptic, echoing words. Not answers. Not instructions. Just subtle threads guiding her closer to a truth no one wants her to find.

Her world begins to unravel. The line between past and present fractures. The spirits grow louder. And Lucy starts to suspect the life she’s been forced to live isn’t hers at all.

To survive what’s coming, Lucy must piece together who she was before everything was stolen—and why her mind keeps returning to one name: Vincent.

The truth is her only weapon, and time is running out before the darkness wins.
