Book and Screenplay

All the Leaving, a Novel

I was tricked by memory into believing that life is a river of sorrows. Now I know, after committing memory to page, that it doesn't occupy our minds so much as our hearts. It’s less about what happened, or if it happened at all, than it is about what our hearts can endure.  - Tulsa

“Exoriare aliquis nostris ex ossibus ultor”

My Unknown Avenger

In Seattle, right before a globalized digital economy would  transform the world and while grunge took its last gasps of air before the end, my friend Mona was raped and urinated on by a man she knew. 


Her friends take vengeance by violating and humiliating Mona's rapist then blowing up a photo of his humiliation on a poster reading - “Exoriare aliquis nostris ex ossibus ultor” (May you arise from my bones, my unknown avenger) - that they put up around town.   When a rash of copycat posters all over Seattle follows, it gets the attention of national news  and the FBI. I know because I was there. My name is Ruby.
