IN A YELLOW WOOD
Synopsis: Jeremy Levin loved three things the most in the world: writing children's books,
his English country home, and his wife Kate. Not necessarily in that order. When Kate suddenly dies in a traffic accident, Jeremy's life falls to pieces. Brought back to his home in Baltimore by his best friend Stacey, Jeremy is encouraged to seek help in dealing with his wife's death, something he hasn't been able to do in the year since she died. As Jeremy enters therapy not only does he start to deal with Kate's death, he also winds up learning more about his relationships with those he's been the closest to his whole life -- his mother, his sister, and his best friend.
CHARACTER BREAKDOWN
JEREMY: 30s - Jeremy never intended to be an author. It just sort of happened the same summer he went to England and met Kate. They married and he started writing. Jeremy has a lot of trouble going on after Kate's death and doesn't seek any help, but his family and best friend give it to him anyway.
