In the quiet Hudson Valley town of Hendricks, silence isn't just a virtue-it's a survival tactic.
Mike Hart is a young mechanic who knows the sound of a well-tuned engine, but when he finds a sedan with sabotaged subframe bolts in his uncle's shop, he discovers a rhythm much more sinister. This isn't a simple mistake; it's a blueprint for murder. For twelve years, Arthur Carver has run a sophisticated operation, staging vehicle accidents and processing human victims like line items in a ledger.
Joined by Mara Ionescu, an ER nurse who has seen the grisly medical inconsistencies of these 'accidents, ' Mike begins to peel back the layers of a conspiracy that spans from corrupt law enforcement to cold-blooded medical professionals. But when the concrete floor of the shop gives up its secrets-the remains of forty victims-the investigation turns into a fight for his own life.
