Description

Some nights only end in one of two ways: dead… or gone.

It's raining hard enough to drown regrets when Nate Mercer gets the call.
Once a cop, now a fixer, Nate survives by doing jobs he doesn't ask questions about—until a crime boss orders him to find Eve Drexler, the one woman Nate never stopped wondering about.

Eve is supposed to be a traitor. Missing. Running. What Nate knows is worse: if he finds her, she dies. If he doesn't, he does.

As the city folds in on itself over the course of a single endless night, Nate moves through backroom bars, flooded streets, and whispered prophecies, chasing a past he can't fix. Every step pulls him deeper into a web of betrayal, violence, and bad choices that refuse to stay buried.

Eve, meanwhile, isn't waiting to be saved. Hurt but ruthless, she's fighting her own war for freedom—one that may cost Nate everything if he gets in her way.

Wide-Eyed and Laughing is a dark, rain-soaked noir thriller about control, obsession, and the price of believing you can save someone who doesn't want saving.

Some fires you walk away from.

Some you have to burn through.
