Lotus

When Sydney's childhood best friend Oliver vanishes without a trace on the Fourth of July, she learns to live with the gaping hole he leaves behind—until, impossibly, he reappears twenty-two years later, alive but forever changed by his captivity. As Oliver struggles to navigate a world that's moved on without him and reclaim the memories stolen from him, Sydney finds herself drawn to the connection that never quite died, even as the walls she's carefully built around her heart begin to crack. Their rekindled bond simmers with something deeper than friendship, but the painful truths they've both been carrying threaten to keep them apart just when they've finally found their way back to each other. This haunting, emotional journey asks whether two broken souls can find healing and love in the wreckage of their shared past.
