A tense, paranoia-driven thriller set in a confined airborne space where deception and hidden identities drive the plot forward.

A pilot transports a U.S. Marshal accompanying a government witness to a trial in New York. As they cross the Alaskan wilderness, tensions soar and trust is tested, as not everyone on board is who they seem.
