Elliot had grand ambition.

But somewhere along the way, life takes a turn. Fighting the daily battles have pushed him to the breaking point, and the world is collapsing around him. To turn life around, he is offered a deal by a local Rock n’ Roll god. In exchange for his last few dollars, he can learn the equation to solve life’s problems, known in dark circles as The Day Life Breaks.

Available now and where fine adventures are sold.
