Decades later, Tyrone has maintained the secret of what he did from the community he protects, but when Tyrone's adopted son, Kid, makes a discovery in a nearby lake, it could ruin everything.

A blinding flash … then darkness. Bria Ford and her three closest friends are stranded on a country highway in the middle of a November night. No phones. No car. No lights. Helpless and hundreds of miles from home, they put their lives in the hands of handsome Jonah Page and his flinty sister, East, strangers who somehow know Bria better than she knows herself.
