The Saltwater Marathon

The Saltwater Marathon is a page-turning sci-fi thriller about a grief-stricken man who puts his emotions aside when he finds himself trapped in a mall with strangers being pursued by a supernatural threat. Overwhelmed with grief over the loss of his wife, Bryan Combs habitually buries himself at work, opting for late night shifts at the mall, often drinking himself to sleep in the back office of his once beloved job. This goes on for months until one morning when they show up - strangers at his office door screaming and pleading for him to let them in because they are being pursued and desperately need somewhere to hide. As he awakens from his drunken stupor, he begins to wonder if this is some sick joke. Compelled to let them in, he soon witnesses for himself what has these people so afraid, so panicked, that he finds it impossible to stay caught in his spiral of self-loathing.
