Psychological thriller with thought-provoking, philosophical undertones…

Is Nathan Marque’s anxiety perception painting everything grey or does an ancestral offense against the universe cause his misfortune? He struggles with anxiety after his best friend is murdered, and his deranged mother reveals a curse. In pursuit of the slain friend’s dream, Nathan enters an intern program for a space exploration company.

Though his sick father denies the Marque bad luck, Nathan’s circumstances leads him to believe in its existence. After moving to San Diego for work, rumination and numbness taint good times, but a solution shines once he hears about his illegitimate daughter back home. Controversy follows him as he tries to obtain custody of the daughter and break away from a drawn-out love triangle.

An ancient book that Nathan acquires in Rome called Astronomica could unlock keys to the bad luck, but time is of essence. Substance abuse delivers divine insight but at the price of detachment. And the more mortality visits him, the further his conscious ventures into the cosmos, rendering him a misfit in the societal constructs that he once excelled in.
