Some battles don’t end when the war does. Cory Johnson is a decorated Army veteran — a Purple Heart recipient and the only survivor of an ambush that wiped out his entire unit. What should have been a homecoming becomes something darker: panic attacks, nightmares, and blackouts that leave him questioning what’s real.

When Dr. Marcus Reed — Cory’s VA therapist — is discovered dead, dumped in the woods with signs of brutal blunt force trauma, the case becomes national attention and local obsession.

The police have two major things:

• Evidence connected to Cory

• Witnesses who heard him explode and threaten Dr. Reed

Cory insists he’s innocent.

But what if he can’t remember?

And what if the real killer is standing right beside him… watching silently?
