Thirteen year old Timit lives alone in the dangerous wilderness outside of an isolated town; a flame-haired girl running from unimaginable horrors. Fifteen year old Connor is the town's resident freak show, his body covered in mysterious scars that make him a target for savage bullying. Their chance meeting and subsequent uneasy friendship starts a chain of events that forces them both to flee from everything they know, pursued by evil on all sides, and chasing secrets that will change their lives forever.
