Ori Jones, a college student, who moved to the NYC, summer of June. Lost her way in an abandoned alley, with no battery charge in her cell, or a living soul in sight.
It was supposed to be just - another day from work. The usual routine.
Little did she know.. what was waiting for her at the opposite end of the alley- -little did she know to be careful.
What her eyes see in the alley - will change her life.. Forever.
Getting stuck in a cobweb of life threats and wicked games was the least of her desires, even worse -
More and more guns, drills and dead bodies, await at her door step everyday.
It's anarchy.
Adele knows she witnessed a murder - what she doesn't know is just how personal it is.
