At sunrise in San Francisco, The Bereft ends a relationship and discards painful reminders, including a mysterious book. Sold to a used bookstore, the book passes through the hands of The Patron, The Hustler, and The Broken—each navigating their own struggles. As their lives intersect, a red Victrola, a café, and a fleeting exchange spark moments of pain, creativity, and transformation. Through these chance connections, they discover that even the smallest encounters can alter life’s course.
