Testing The Coffin

When young journalist Nick is stranded in an Alpine hotel, he runs into his friend Isabel and meets Charlotte, her magnetic, unpredictable co-worker. What begins as chance encounters over cigarettes and stolen bottles of wine, soon spirals into an intoxicating journey across Europe. Caught between two women and haunted by his childhood trauma, he is forced to confront questions of freedom, loyalty, and what it means to feel truly alive. Testing the Coffin is a raw and atmospheric novel about fleeting connections, the weight of memory, and the search for authenticity in a world that often feels hollow.
