Forced to stay behind with her controlling mother and demeaning boyfriend, Annie has to find some way to cope with her newfound loneliness and the feeling that her sister's death was her own fault.

Now, he claims that he needs her, along with the eleven other kids that have been brought into the headquarters. Annie, who is reluctant to be a part of something as horrible as this, attempts to make her escape, that is, until she is given one piece of crucial information that will fuel her until the very end of their twisted game.
