Betwixt And Between

Johnny Marathon awakens in New York City with no memory, only a soul-deep desire to track down a lover he cannot remember. Cryptic clues, strange dreams and an annoying homeless man reveal to Johnny he is a fictitious hero in a novel being written by Judd Myrvin, a fledgling writer whose undisciplined writing skills have trapped Johnny and a cast of supporting characters in literary purgatory. Johnny's only hope to regain his memory and his love is to find their creator before it's too late.But Johnny is not alone in his quest. The story's supporting characters include two rival mob bosses, a voluptuous hit-woman and corrupt NYC police, each determined to extract Judd's name and address from Johnny for their own selfish means. To escape eternal purgatory and find his love, Johnny must get to their creator first.Through one misadventure after another, Johnny finds Judd, only to be cornered in the writer's apartment by an epic shootout between the mobsters and the NYPD. The shootout ends with the meanest cop in control. He orders the writer to make him the story's hero but Judd refuses to listen to the cop, to Johnny or any of his characters, leaving them betwixt and between, or are they?
