David Burroughs was once a devoted father, living a suburban dream with his wife Cheryl and three-year-old son, Matthew--until one fateful night when David woke suddenly to discover Matthew had been murdered while David was asleep just down the hall. David, wrongly accused and convicted of the murder, is left to serve out his time in a maximum-security prison. Five years later, Cheryl’s younger sister Rachel makes a surprise appearance during visiting hours bearing a strange photograph. It’s a vacation shot of a bustling amusement park a friend shared with her, and in the background, just barely in frame, is a boy bearing an eerie resemblance to David’s son. Even though it can’t be, David just knows: Matthew is still alive. David plans a harrowing escape, determined to achieve the impossible – save his son, clear his own name, and discover the real story of what happened. With his life on the line and the FBI following his every move, can David evade capture long enough to reveal the shocking truth?
