About this Item

Paperback. The Lonely Road is a harrowing descent into the uncharted depths of the human psyche, where denial, trauma, and repressed darkness collide. Lance is a young man haunted by a past he can't face and choices he doesn't understand. After an impulsive act spirals his life into chaos, he finds himself entangled in a distorted reality, unable to distinguish friend from foe or even himself from his inner demons. As his mind unravels, he's forced to confront the pieces of himself he's long kept hidden-the anger, shame, and pain that have festered in silence for years. But darkness has a way of taking control when it's ignored, morphing into something relentless and unforgiving. In his journey through mental isolation and fractured memories, Lance must either learn to let his darkness breathe, to acknowledge it and seek balance, or risk being entirely consumed by it. In a world that encourages us to "cope through it," The Lonely Road challenges that notion, urging readers to face the shadows that lurk within, to give their darkness a voice. Because, as Lance discovers, when we deny the parts of ourselves we fear the most, they're bound to surface-and the consequences can be deadly.

Synopsis

The Lonely Road is a harrowing descent into the uncharted depths of the human psyche, where denial, trauma, and repressed darkness collide. Lance is a young man haunted by a past he can't face and choices he doesn't understand. After an impulsive act spirals his life into chaos, he finds himself entangled in a distorted reality, unable to distinguish friend from foe or even himself from his inner demons.

As his mind unravels, he's forced to confront the pieces of himself he's long kept hidden-the anger, shame, and pain that have festered in silence for years. But darkness has a way of taking control when it's ignored, morphing into something relentless and unforgiving. In his journey through mental isolation and fractured memories, Lance must either learn to let his darkness breathe, to acknowledge it and seek balance, or risk being entirely consumed by it.

In a world that encourages us to "cope through it," The Lonely Road challenges that notion, urging readers to face the shadows that lurk within, to give their darkness a voice.
