Aiden and Meg Falconer are on the hunt for the one man who might be able to free their parents from jail and so are plenty of other people, including the FBI and an eerie, hairless killer. After one close call too many, the Falconers find themselves stowed away on a ship -- but the chase doesn't end there. Instead, it moves to close quarters, where every step, every breath, could get them caught.
