John is a struggling writer living a fairly content life in New Zealand with his beautiful wife Tanya. His world seems idyllic, but John cannot mask his frustration over his inability to remember a significant chunk of his past. He inexplicably has skills that he should not have, and recurring nightmares of murder make him long to uncover the secrets trapped in his mind. And while Tanya is supportive, she seems to prefer ignoring the past and focusing on the present.

When a man comes into their lives with a mysterious agenda, the truth is finally unleashed. And it is more complicated, and more dangerous, than John could ever have imagined.
