She thought the overdose would be the end. It was only the prologue.
An actress enslaved by addiction, she lived her life in a haze of prescription pills, cheap alcohol, and a desperate, fractured delusion: she believed she was a 1950s starlet on her way to a forbidden affair. But when the final, lethal dose stops her heart, she doesn't find darkness.
She wakes up naked in a lakeside cabin with no memory of how she arrived.
Trapped in an ageless paradise where time stands still, hunger never comes, and the waves crash endlessly, she is utterly alone. Until cryptic messages shatter her isolation, and the boundaries between her past addiction and this terrifying new reality begin to blur.
Two opposing forces emerge from the suffocating silence, offering conflicting paths to survival. An old man warns her to stay and destroy everything. A mysterious girl urges her to light the beacon and escape. Both claim to be her savior, but their contradictions force impossible, reality-bending choices.
As fragmented visions tear through her mind, she begins remembering her true past lives, each one more disturbing than the last. Dark bargains. Supernatural wars. Sacrifices that stained her soul forever.
Her choice will unleash hell. Or create heaven itself.
