Set against the backdrop of the roaring twenties, the story unfolds in a world where glamour and glitz mask the harsh realities of life. The protagonist, Mirielle West, finds herself thrust into a nightmare after being quarantined due to a devastating epidemic. As her luxurious existence crumbles around her, Mirielle grapples with the loss of her social standing and the challenges of isolation. The once-celebrated life of a silent film star’s wife takes a dark turn, forcing her to confront her past and the choices that have led her to this pivotal moment.

As Mirielle navigates her unexpected new reality, she discovers the resilience within herself and learns to redefine her identity beyond the glittering facade of stardom. The haunting echo of her previous life serves as both a reminder of what she has lost and a motivation to seek a path toward resilience and rebirth. This poignant narrative invites readers to reflect on themes of identity, societal pressures, and the strength it takes to forge one's destiny anew.
