It's New Year's Eve of 1999 when four teenagers working late are attacked at a Blockbuster video store in New Jersey. Only one inexplicably survives. Police quickly identify a suspect, the boyfriend of one of the victims, who flees and is never seen again.

In the aftermath of the latest crime, three lives intersect: the lone survivor of the Blockbuster massacre, the brother of the fugitive accused and FBI agent Sarah Keller.

Twenty five years ago, Jenna, Donnie, and Nico were the best of friends, having forged a bond through the abuse and neglect they endured as residents of Savior House, a group home for parentless teens. When the home was shut down - after the disappearance of several kids - the three were split up. Though the trauma of their childhood has never left them, each went on to live accomplished - if troubled - lives. They haven't seen one another since they were teens but now are reunited for a single haunting reason: someone is trying to kill them.
