Sinopsis

Prompted by a class reunion, Home deals with the experience of homecoming after extended absence and engages with the archaeology of the self in the context of estrangement and belonging. Having taken the decision to emigrate decades earlier, Tompa's unnamed protagonist is caught between two worlds, navigating a journey from one homeland to another, and suddenly facing an upsurge of revelations that have a strong emotional impact.

    “THE SPOILS is a glorious meditation on failure, missed opportunities, and making your own wins. It’s about art and beauty and athleticism and other people’s wives...Colin Thompson has written an unapologetic and unforgettable narrator: he’s lovable and wrongheaded, frenetic and full of restless exuberance. He’s scathingly funny and outrageously inappropriate, a guy with a good heart who can’t catch a break.” 
     - Kimberly King Parsons (author of Blacklight & We Were The Universe) 
    Venice, California. 2014. Ryan Wilson, a once hopeful aspiring screenwriter is transitioning to hopelessness. The clock, the bank, the zodiac—they all point toward the exit door of this creative dream. Hapless and broke at 31-years-old, he finds himself one more sandbag for the hourglass, taking a job coaching middle school lacrosse in the affluent neighborhood of Brentwood. In a town and entertainment industry built on connections, a pool of wealthy parents is a great place to look for a guy with everything to gain. 
    And as luck would have it, a connection reveals itself: Camilla Emerson Tourney, the wife of his Hollywood Hero, writer/director heavyweight Buck Tourney. Trapped in a crisis of her own—hers of apathy and routine—the attraction is immediate but fraught: is he just some sort of slum crush? A dive-bar holiday for a bored Hollywood Aristocrat? And what about him? Is she only magnetic because of who her husband is? If they met in Denver would he feel the same? 
    At times and at turns warped with polemic introspection, The Spoils is a ride through the looking glass of the young American Man. Neurotic, hedonistic, sensitive and tawdry, Ryan Wilson takes us along as he sailor dives into the murky waters of adulthood: the battlefield of infidelity and integrity, drive and success, love, status, and the ruthlessness of trying to make it in Hollywood.

    Over the sapphire waves of Marinus, where sirens' lullabies weave illusions from foam and ocean guardians patrol the abyssal trenches, siren Liora sings a forbidden melody that saves storm-tossed sailor Rhys from drowning—binding their souls in a bond of salt and thunder. Exiled from her pod for consorting with surface folk, Liora's lullaby awakens Rhys's latent storm magic, drawing the wrath of kraken lords and envious tide witches. As they sail treacherous maelstroms and dive into bioluminescent grottos, their love uncovers a submerged siren pact that could soothe the seas' rage or unleash tidal cataclysms. Pursued by harpoon-wielding hunters and spectral waves, they must harmonize lullaby and storm to reclaim a lost conch of calm. In the heart of sapphire depths, where every wave carries a siren's sigh and every storm hides a sailor's dream, their bond becomes the melody that tames the untamed ocean.
