Unless they can save themselves, they won't survive. The clock is ticking. Soon to be a major motion movie from Lionsgate.

But when Isaac returns home from New York when their friend goes missing, suddenly things aren't as they were. Something is different. Thea and Isaac have always been friends. But maybe that wasn't how it was supposed to be.
