In their first encounter with him, Ryan pops up in the back of their SUV and points a gun at their heads. Before they even have a chance to react, he informs them that he has just kidnapped their daughter and that they must do exactly what he says in order to win her freedom. He then forces the couple to commit acts designed to systematically destroy the life they’ve built together. Unable to go to the police or seek help, Neil and Abby must draw upon every ounce of courage in their bodies to overcome Ryan and save their daughter.
