Matt BowersтАЩs life ended at sixteen, when a vicious betrayal by someone who he should have been able to trust left him a shell of himself, fighting OCD and PTSD, living in constant fear and always running. When he buys a remote tract of land, he thinks heтАЩs found the perfect place to hide from the world and attempt to establish some peace. For ten years he believes heтАЩs found a measure of comfort, until the day a stranger begins to run on MattтАЩs road. He returns every day, an unwelcome intrusion into MattтАЩs carefully structured life. Matt appeals to the local sheriff, who cannot help him since the jogger is doing nothing wrong. Gradually, after tentatively breaking the ice, Matt begins to accept the manтАЩs presenceтАФ
But when the runner doesnтАЩt show up one day, it throws MattтАЩs world into chaos and he must make the hardest decision of his life.
