What Is The Story?

Mystery novel author William Kasinski has enjoyed a very successful career. But it seems after 50 years in the game, the great is losing his touch. With his professional life in danger of running out, William heads back to his hometown with plans of starting a memoir. But a chance meeting with a young adult writer at the start of their career leads to a resurfacing of long-lost childhood memories - ones that William must reckon with, and will force him to re-tread the path of his life.
