In an endeavor to better herself, by chance, slightly eccentric graduate student Alina Bacca finds herself torn between passions. Trapped in a catastrophic love triangle, bound by the affections conceived from her horrific past and the alternative prospect of an impossible future, the twenty-six year old is continually threatened with instability by the irrational as she struggles against an advisory she can not be certain even exists outside her mind. A love that may have been lost in the physical sense has managed not only to survive, but to transcend into a dark and significant presence that defies this young Abilene Christian University theology major's most extravagant beliefs. Alina clings to her faith in a desperate attempt to resist being drawn in by the heat of a contrasting temptation as she struggles to hold on to her sanity while fending off the call of an altogether darker pursuit.
