In the ten years since John Malley lost his wife and daughter, he has slowly faded into obscurity in a rural Pennsylvania town. He spends his days at the local bar and tries to numb the pain of his loss. That is, until Ted’s Dead Rose Tavern becomes the home of the biggest mass killing in the history of the town. John, the lone survivor of the killing-spree, is forced on the run. He heads north where he hopes to hide out at his brother’s house.
Meanwhile, in New York City, young Melanie Parker investigates a disturbing new trend she discovered online. From what she has learned, metallic black bands worn along the forearm are responsible for some form of mind control. Skeptical of this theory, Melanie embarks on a night time excursion that places her in the middle of a riot in the middle of the city. Melanie fights for her life as chaos spreads throughout the city.
As John witnesses the events in New York, he is compelled to take action. But once in the city, John is forced to confront his past.
Isaac Parker looked at his daughter. Her knees were bloody, she was covered in dirt, and her hair was a mess beneath her Mets hat. But she was alive. He wanted to scream at her, to tell her how stupid it was to have gone out this night. Twenty blocks from home?! What had she been thinking? He knew that would get him nowhere, though. She was a smart girl. She never got in trouble. There was a reason for her going out this morning. She wouldn’t be let off the hook, no, no, no, not after this; but he had to know what drew her outside this early.
“Tell me your story before we get home, don’t leave anything out. I need to know everything. If I hadn’t shown up, you’d be dead right now. I want to know what would draw Melanie Parker twenty blocks from home in the middle of the night,” he asked, his voice remained smooth and calm.
