## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

The foggy hills of Northern California. A bottle rattles on a cluttered desk.

A writer who pops Adderall wakes to his estranged father’s claim that every childhood trauma he’s written was invented. Between a new lover, a loyal friend, and a murder trial that mirrors his own life, memory frays at the edges.

A 2016 romantic thriller that never confuses stimulants with clarity.

**Mood tags**: bittersweet, paranoid, tender
