For Mike and Hattie Hayes, their cabin on a pristine Colorado lake has always been a refuge, a weekend escape from the hustle and bustle of Denver. Both are particularly excited their daughter and her husband have joined them for a weekend away. Their time with her is rare and precious.
Long walks, fishing, and lunch in the nearby historic town of Rustic are all a part of the allure.
The star-filled night sky viewed from their small boat is the clearest they have ever seen.
The heavenly views offer a glimpse of other worlds, of faraway places not seen from the city.
Their private mountain retreat is their slice of paradise. It is perfect, until…
Until the night a blinding light sweeps over them, the lake, and the surrounding forests.
Until their daughter subsequently vanishes.
Until their cabin is trashed, and a mysterious note is left behind.
Until an unknown beast stalks them through the woods that surround their cabin.
Until they discover the terrible truth behind the light that drastically changes their world.
Until they understand the blazing light wasn’t a shooting star or a falling satellite, it was the EVENT.
