Twelve-year-old Arlo is afraid of fire, creepy TV shows, and even his own shadow - but most of all, he's afraid of losing his mother to the disease that nearly claimed her life a year ago. During a Thanksgiving road trip, a sudden collision with a strange beast in the middle of the road totals the family's car, and Arlo, his mom, and his sister end up stranded in a small town called Livermore. But there's something off about this place. No one has a phone or a car, and the townspeople aren't exactly friendly. Without phone service to make a call for help, Arlo and his family stay at the Samuels' mansion, but inexplicable sightings at night set Arlo on edge. When he stumbles upon a dark secret that the town's inhabitants will kill to keep, getting out of Livermore becomes a matter of life or death.
