These Masks of Mine

Former bounty hunter Jordan Lambert has spent two years in therapy trying to outrun the ghosts of his past: the brutal loss of his fiancée, Courtney, and their unborn daughter, Roselyn. Now, a struggling entrepreneur living with his passive-aggressive mother and resentful half-sister, Paisley-who is pregnant by a violent man-Jordan's high-stakes life has been replaced by the quiet hum of a nervous breakdown. He desperately clings to the mundane, fighting the urge to resurrect the dangerous operative he used to be.

But the mundane is a mask, and it's about to crack.

When his best friend, Brent, struggling with his own demons of addiction and a broken engagement, coaxes Jordan out for a surprise night, the carefully balanced scales of Jordan's sanity are violently tipped. The surprise: a private dance with a stripper named Mila, who is a haunting, one-in-a-billion doppelgänger of the woman he lost.

The encounter rips Jordan's world apart, triggering a catastrophic PTSD episode that forces him to confront the unacknowledged trauma beneath the surface. When violence erupts in the strip club, the former bounty hunter, stripped of his composure, unleashes a brutal, calculated fury that leaves bodies broken and a bloody trail back to the high-stakes life he swore he'd left behind.

Some masks are meant to be worn. Others are meant to be broken.
