"When you have the courage to conquer your fears, you have the ability to conquer the world."
Robert Harper, a man in his fifties and CEO of Harper Inc, hires Sarah Brooks to be his assistant. But he doesn't realize that this was actually a part of Sarah's plan. The real reason she's in the company is to uncover the truth of a terrible incident that took place years back, for a mission that she'd been obsessed with for years; one that nobody knows or can imagine.
Sarah manages to keep the whole thing a secret until she meets Kevin Harper, Robert's nephew, who also works at Harper Inc. After a slip up and an unexpected event that almost shatters the company's reputation, Kevin gets a whiff of suspicion on Sarah. As they discreetly set out to find answers, Sarah and Kevin are unknowingly thrown into a whirlwind of conflicting truths and twisted motives. The tension between the two becomes palpable as horrifying truths come to light.
When Kevin discovers something so appalling and nerve-wracking that it threatens to tear everything apart, including himself, he comes to a terrible decision.
