Sixteen-year-old Luke Samuels just can’t fake it anymore. He’s ready to hang up his pathetic existence and start over in a place where he’ll no longer have to outrun his nightmares. His plan to slip away during the teen retreat at Hope Lodge campground is flawless.

Camp counselor Andy Wooten has already abandoned his past. Packed in the excess baggage he left behind are the ghosts of his ex-wife and former business partners. The confident accountant calculates his life’s ambitions as well as he does his clients’ balance sheets, and judges his new reputation is far superior to the one he lost.

Three men stake their futures on the precise execution of an illegal act, but the trio’s ringleader ups the ante when he abducts a witness.

In the aftermath of a wicked storm, all paths intersect and someone is bound to lose. Is anyone willing to look over his shoulder to consider the value of his past, or will each schemer ignore that which is good to gain that which he wants—regardless of the cost?
