The Sound of Music meets Panic Room. Strong women against Nazis or two-legged rattlesnakes. Think of Army vet Laurel Wilkins, as a blend of the slightly irreverent nun, and an ultra-resourceful and protective mom. She returned from her tour of duty, vowing she'd never pick up another gun. For fifteen years, she kept that promise. Recently widowed, Laurel Wilkins plans a trip to the woods with her children. A getaway from grief. What she doesn't plan for is being on the FBI's Most Wanted Terrorist List. If the agency finds her, they'll take her from her grieving children. Hunkered down in a remote cabin in the mountains, grief over the loss of their father is the least of Laurel's worries. They're not the only ones in hiding. Lurking in the forest is an entity more sinister than anything she experienced in the military. If she ignores the threat, her children's lives, and the lives of countless U.S. citizens, will be at risk. Under normal circumstances, she'd call the FBI, but she's off-the-grid for a reason. She'd turn to either of the two men who have offered support, but like the country that has betrayed her, they can't be trusted. What must an army veteran with one handgun, and a squad of soldiers made up of four children and a dog, sacrifice to save her family?
