As Chicago falls victim to its inevitable seasonal chill, it seems something else is in the air- change. Surrounded by love and loss, five people battle their lives' most significant obstacles. For Jayce, it's the aftermath of the death of his enemy; Cho, it's coming home for the holidays after losing contact; Addison, it's a sudden and tumultuous reunion with her ex-best friend; Izaak, it's learning to navigate both a cancer diagnosis and a battling mind; R, it's the struggle to find closure from an ex-love. When autumn finally comes to a close, what challenges will they face, and how will they find acceptance in this turmoil? Through a collection of five short stories comes an exploration of grief and the burdens each stranger carries.
