"Tell me what happened yesterday?" I shift on the padded chair in my psychiatrist's office, staring at the abstract watercolor on the wall as an attempt to avoid her question. "I saw Lucas." "And. . ." Dr. Gabrieli prodded. I don't answer. "Riley? I finally look back at the doctor. "It wasn't Lucas. Just. . .just someone who looked like him." "Exactly. You see, our minds are incredible machines but simply put, they don't work like computers. Instead, they can unconsciously bend our perception of what is real and fill in the gaps, making it possible to perceive things that aren't really there." Dr. Gabrieli taps her pen against her notebook. "Think about an amputee who still feels his missing leg, or how it's possible to see patterns in chaos. Memories are sprinkled with gaps, then we fill in those gaps with our own created recollections." False information. Distorted memories. Lies. But what if my mind can't decipher what are truths and what are lies? And what if the truth is even more dangerous than the lies my mind believes?***Riley Bishop is a single mother, working at home as a graphic designer to provide for her two children, Sadie and Oliver.

Soon Riley finds it harder and harder to know what is truth and what are lies as she is forced to question her own reality while she searches for her daughter.Apprehending fugitives as a part of the SOG team gives Tucker Shaw the purpose and drive he needs to fight the demons from his past.
