Lily's car accident strands her deep in the wilderness. She takes shelter in a remote cabin, but this refuge becomes her prison. The isolated structure holds dark secrets that force her to face painful memories from her own past. She realizes escape requires more than finding her way out of the woods. Lily must piece together disturbing events that occurred in this place before her arrival. The cabin's history intertwines with her own trauma in ways she never expected. Her mind plays tricks on her as she struggles to separate reality from fear. The truth she uncovers reveals both terrible human cruelty and unexpected possibilities for healing. Lily discovers that survival depends on confronting what she has spent years trying to forget.
