Storyline
In the small, mountain town of Bellows River, small tremors of tragedy move at the feet of Lucy Gibbs. A
recovering drug-addict, Lucy is giving all of herself to her efforts to stay clean and regain custody of her
son, Max, who she had lost custody of over the years. Despite over a decade of navigating through
severe depression and wavering between sobriety and days lost to drugs and alcohol, her ex-husband,
Evan and best friend, Viv, have never faltered in their support. She finds herself at the threshold a new
chapter, something to live for, and a family and friends who fiercely protect and believe in her.
When Max is killed in her care by a stray bullet, her already fragile mental state and enervated handle on
life slowly dismantles. Left in the fragments of what she’d hoped life could be; she falls deeply under the
control of trauma and rage, capturing and imprisoning Max’s killer, Titus. As the events unfold, cracks in
reality slowly reveal a juxtaposition of revenge and self-torture. Lucy’s actions take her, and everyone
involved to devastating ends, exposing the dangerous effects the mind has on all that exists outside of
it.

Description
Lucy, Caucasian early thirties, teeters between a happy, clean life and one riddled with the guilt of a
once addict mother to her son, Max. A full-time server at Ruby’s Grill, she lives alone at the
family farm given to her at the death of her parents. With a past full of abuse from her
father, she has a legion of torment against her and battles them daily. However, she’s
fueled by an impenetrable hope and her intention to be a strong and present figure in Max’s
life. Troubled and angry by her past, fighting against all odds to keep it from infiltrating her
dreams for a healthy future and forced to survive witnessing the violent death of Max, Lucy
is a ticking time bomb. She’s all broken heart, so when tragedy strikes the control she has
hanging in the balance begins to shift to an unravelling.
