Summary
One man died. Another was reborn in his place.
William was meant to protect the world from the truth—that Paul McCartney was gone. But in time, he doesn’t just play the part; he becomes it. Every word, every song, every look in the mirror blurs the line between what’s real and what’s left of him.
And when someone finally begins to see through the act, the vow that keeps the secret alive threatens to destroy everything, including what’s left of his soul.

Summary
John was stubborn, but he was more than just that- he was petty. Anyone who knew him for more than a brief meeting would agree. Brian knew this fact more than most, having to deal with him on an almost daily basis. During the ride back to his house, John kept playing Brian's words on repeat in his head. ‘There's nothing you can do’. With every loop of the phrase, the burning itch to prove him wrong grew. It grew until it was all encompassing. By the time he stepped back into his empty house, he had but one thought: says who?

Summary
Paul McCartney is admitted to Strawberry Fields Psychiatric Hospital after he near-overdose. Scared as he is in this new environment, he manages to make friends with some of the other patients - including a playful, erratic, complicated man named John Lennon.
The two develop a friendship that passes the boundaries or what most would deem normal - or healthy. Does it end well for either of them? What milestones does Paul hit before his already fragile mental health begin to splinter…
!!!!I just want to say that this story is absolutely NO reflection of how I see these people in real life, it is exactly what it’s called - fiction!!!!
