___________________________
Eli Hagin can't finish anything.
He hates his job, but can't seem to quit. He doesn't want to be with his girlfriend, but doesn't know how end things with her, either. Eli wants to write a novel, but he's never taken a story beyond the first chapter.
Eli also has trouble separating reality from fiction.
When his best friend kills himself, Eli is motivated, for the first time in his life, to finally end something himself, just as Mike did...
Except sessions with his therapist suggest that Eli's most recent 'first chapters' are not as fictitious as he had intended ... and a series of text messages that Mike received before his death point to something much, much darker...
