There's one enemy you can never escape…
A criminal genius. A comedian on the edge. A secret that should have stayed buried…
Nick’s life is about to change, and not for the better.
After his comedy and acting agent lands him a film role, Nick meets with a prisoner to help get into character.
Enter Gideon Matthias, who explodes into Nick's life like a nuclear bomb.
Gideon is a criminal genius with an almost superhuman gift of perception. A man who beats other inmates to death while describing the emotions they're feeling.
The first meeting changes everything for the two men—for very different reasons—and Nick finds himself drawn into Gideon's chaotic world.
As Nick battles his inner demons and tries to get his life on track, Gideon contends against his own enemies inside the prison—one of which he’s crossed too many times.
He may be a criminal genius, but even a genius can bleed. And so can his new friend.
The lives of Nick and Gideon are on a collision course, and there’s only one way out for them both…
