Claire Howard, a once-celebrated debut novelist, is struggling to recapture her early success. Pressured by her publisher to produce a new manuscript, she’s sent to a secluded cabin in Vermont—the former writing retreat of legendary author Edgar J. Koenig. There, isolated and creatively paralyzed, Claire descends into a fog of substance abuse and self-doubt.

But everything changes when she wakes one day to find a completed novel on her screen—one she has no memory of writing. The book becomes a sensation, catapulting Claire back into literary stardom with movie deals, fanfare, and newfound fame she'd only dreamed of until now. However, as expectations mount for a third novel, Claire returns to the cabin and encounters the ghost of Koenig, unveiling a sinister truth behind her success.

As the line between inspiration and possession blurs, Claire must choose between holding onto her fame or preserving her sanity—before it’s too late.
