David Harwood, a reporter in Promise Falls, New York, is stressed out. His paper is outsourcing jobs to India, he can't get a solid lead on the corrupt for-profit prison moving to town, and his wife, Jan, is struggling with a bout of depression. As a much-needed break, David and Jan decide to take their four-year-old son, Ethan, to a local amusement park for a day of ice cream, roller coasters, and carefree fun. Within an hour of arriving at the park, Ethan goes missing and panic quickly replaces revelry. David thinks that his day can't get any worse, but when his child is found and his wife disappears, panic escalates into full-blown terror. Desperately searching for any clue that could lead him to Jan, David unravels a tangle of lies and deception that gets more complicated with every turn.
