***

After a near-death experience in the wild reunites high school strangers, Scout Martin and Cole Jackson, their worlds collide as they form an unlikely friendship.

But Cole has a secret; he's on the run from the police for a murder he didn't commit. And as they grow closer, Cole finds it increasingly difficult to keep his secret from Scout, who's confronting the demons of her past, causing an inevitable rift between the two.

Yet the lies we tell each other always find a way to bind us together, sometimes in a way we could've never imagined.
