Two months ago, Wren woke up in an attic, covered in blood, suffering from memory loss, and surrounded by the remnants of a mysterious cult ritual. Today she meets Carson, the first of eight other survivors from the attic. Wren hopes Carson can help piece together her fragmented past, but he has other plans.
