Synopsis/Details

On a quiet night inside a worn-down cop bar, a stunning young woman named Ava steps in for a drink—and walks straight into a nightmare she can’t escape.

Moments after leaving, Ava returns, shaken and confused, claiming she was just attacked outside… by a man who is somehow still inside the bar.

When it happens again—and again—the patrons realize they are trapped in a relentless time loop, forced to relive the same deadly sequence: Ava leaves, a man follows, and she never makes it back alive.

As tension builds and loyalties fracture, the group attempts to intervene—but every action makes the outcome worse. Injuries escalate. The threat evolves. And the loop begins to turn on them.

At the center of it all is Jack, a former cop and bar owner who recognizes the horrifying truth: this isn’t random.

It’s a reckoning.

Years earlier, Jack ignored a call for help—a decision that cost a woman her life. Now, the night is repeating, forcing him to confront the one moment he failed to act.

With reality collapsing and time running out, Jack and the others must stop reacting and make the one choice that matters: act without hesitation.

Because this time…

if they get it wrong, no one walks away.

The Writer: Gary Rose

I’m an multi-optioned screenwriter who, in a previous life, served as a police detective, mastering the delicate art of negotiating hostage situations. Retirement led me down a different path—teaching and writing—a journey that began with my first non-fiction book, which became an Amazon best-seller. That success ignited my passion for storytelling and introduced the world to my indomitable protagonist, FBI agent Jeannie Loomis. Believing that the ends justify the means, Jeannie has become the heart of a gripping 18-novel thriller series. My historical fiction script The Beautiful Beast was selected as a quarter-finalist in the 2025 PAGE competition. The Phantom Train script was selected in… Go to bio
