A hot summer day in New York City gives Conor O'Neil no warning of the nightmare about to engulf him. After witnessing a fatal robbery, Conor escapes wrongful arrest and immediately goes on the run, fearing for his life. He discovers that an eerie pair of stage hypnotists, a fervent Southern Baptist, and a very sinister televangelist are involved in the heist, the proceeds of which are to fund something unthinkable yet all too possible. Conor's desperate need to clear his name takes him on a terrifying trip to a distant and hostile land, where he must use all of his remaining strength to survive the most deadly weapon of all.
