The Portland police are horrified to discover victims are being kidnapped in their city, and forced to play games to survive in a sick version of a reality game show, broadcast on the dark web. If you lose, you die. Matters escalate once the story breaks, as the dark web show is shared across social media, raising the stakes and the number of viewers, and bringing the public’s eye on every action the police take. Troubled detective Ben Jacobs and his cybercrimes team are in a race against time to save the captives, as the criminal underworld outbid each other to choose the manner of each elimination. While the world watches with a kind of morbid mixture of revulsion and social media frenzy, the captives must face daily challenges to survive, knowing one of them must lose each round, and hoping to survive long enough for someone on the outside to save them.
