Joshua Hong leaves behind everything he's built-his career, his home, the security he once clung to-in pursuit of the past he can't seem to forget.
Seeking closure from a childhood shrouded in unanswered questions, he embarks on a journey that promises more than just forgotten memories.
Unbeknownst to Joshua, the past he's chasing has become intertwined with a darker, predatory world-
one where secrets thrive in the shadows, and he might find himself more prey than seeker.
Each step draws him deeper, closer to a truth that could unravel him, and a dangerous connection waiting to claim him.
