A high-stakes thriller about a teenage boy on the run from assassins after discovering his life is built on lies, driven by paranoia and action rather than depth.

For many years, Nathan Harper has had the uneasy feeling that life with his family isn't quite what it seems. As he draws closer to uncovering the truth, he is hunted by assassins, forcing him to flee with his neighbor, Karen, the only person he can trust.
