Mike Wingate had a difficult childhood - he was abandoned by his father in a playground when he was four years old and grew up in a foster home. No one ever came to take him, and he only had isolated and fragmented memories of his real parents. Now, being an adult, Mike is finally living the life he's always dreamed of - he's happily married to Annabelle, the woman of his dreams, they're raising a wonderful girl together, and his successful construction company promises his family a secure and peaceful future. Until Mike's past comes back to haunt him... Menacing figures begin to appear in Mike's life, and when he reports them, the police seem more interested in his murky past than protecting his family. When he has no one left to trust, he turns to Shep - a very dangerous man who also happens to be Mike's only true friend from their days together in the foster home. Together, both of them will do whatever is necessary to protect Mike and the people he loves from their evildoers - mysterious enemies whose motives are unclear, but the degree of their determination to hurt him is not in doubt due to the message they leave him: You are next in line...
