August 7, 1994: Seven-year-old Leo Timmons is abducted from a park by Sam and Les Simmons. Through years of intense brainwashing and isolation, they erase his past, renaming him John Simmons and convincing him his real family never existed. While his parents, May and Danny, and his five siblings spend eight years desperately searching for him, Leo grows up in a house built on lies. In 2002, a fifteen-year-old "John" must finally confront the shattered memories of the boy he used to be.
