What if the one thing keeping you going… is also what’s tearing your life apart?
Theo’s dreams have withered. In his late thirties, his career is stalled, his relationships are shallow, and his bank account is almost empty. The one thing that gives him joy is running—miles and miles alone, pounding the pavement as the world fades behind him.
Everything changes, however, after a near-fatal accident on a quiet morning jog leaves Theo dazed and hospitalized. But the doctors don’t think his injuries match his story. Police detectives are brought in to ask questions, and when a mandatory psych evaluation digs into his past, Theo can’t hide from the truth much longer.
As dark repercussions from the accident begin to consume him, the line between reality and illusion begins to blur. Theo is forced to confront haunting secrets that have shaped his life. Because this time, what he’s running from isn’t just the past—it might be the end of everything.
Gripping, layered, and relentlessly tense, When Leaves Turn Red is a psychological thriller that twists memory, guilt, and obsession into a chilling race to survive.
