In a matter of minutes, it all turns upside down. Two muggers corner Webb outside his home and force him into his own car at gunpoint. For the next hour, he drives the streets of Cincinnati trying to convince his abductors not to kill him.
He’s ultimately freed, but the moment of relief quickly explodes into a new firestorm, as the police and media doubt his story. As Dylan and a local reporter dig into evidence that something deeper is lurking, bodies start to pile up. And the closer they get to the truth, the more they fear they may be next.
