Set in the sunburned corners of the beach volleyball world, Cut Shot is a sharp, gritty, darkly funny ride through heartbreak, loyalty, and the games men play to avoid feeling anything.

Rachel is a young single mother living with her son, Tristan, on a lake - remote, nearly inhospitable. She does what she has to do to keep them alive. But soon, and unexpectedly, Tristan will have to live alone, his youth unprotected and rough.

Today is the perfect day to die. Bernard is the type of man that accomplishes all that he sets out to - and easily. He's intelligent, hardworking, and completely unfamiliar with failure. His only complaint - the singular source of the inner anger bubbling within him - is that no one else in the world recognizes that. It's time to force them to. Bernard's had enough. Enough of the complete absence of respect in his life, of being looked down upon, of being the only person in the world - it seems - who truly sees the reality of his life and what he deserves acknowledgment for.

A parable based on a patient's real-life story of love and loss and why people so often make the wrong choices. The insights are clear and rather poetically stated, and the story is told from both parties' perspectives. There is no one truth to a relationship, but the truth is revealed in the reasons why one chooses affirmation and the other negation. It may seem simple, but look around you, and, perhaps, things may start to make more sense than before.
