Upon learning of a cancer diagnosis, a New York Times best-selling author (Nick Searcy) pens his final book in a last-ditch attempt to reconnect with his estranged son Jake (Seth Bowling) before it's too late. His novel, The Man From Nowhere, spins a noir tale of throwback detective Johnny Gamble (Anthony Tyler Quinn) desperately searching for a lost son who has turned to a life of crime. Fiction and reality begin to blur for Jake as he finds himself interacting with both detective Gamble and his father, now a reformed Christian, who shows up at his door and refuses to leave until the two can heal from their painful past.
