Both find themselves fighting a sinister alien invasion where humanity's children are exploited to unleash terror and devastation.Rachel Collins and Antoinette Penner, the teenage protagonists, forge an uneasy alliance in the disturbing prison they find themselves in, crafting a shield not just against the alien entities but the sinister and all too human forces that aid the invaders.Over a tense three-day timeline, the journeys of these four become a disturbing yet poignant exploration of self, highlighting trials, horrors, and the boundless love between a father and daughter, leading to the ultimate in self-sacrifice for humanity's salvation.
