Dave thinks he's taking a simple trip with his estranged mother to the city, but this is no ordinary city. After being abandoned by his mother, Dave must summon all that he can to survive the chaos and the city's heinous citizens. A mercenary cat, a relentless detective, a cult, and a giant squirrel as a guard pet are only a few of Dave's problems. When he tags along with slap-happy city kid Joe, he gets sucked into a mission that goes deeper than they imagined. With hostility at every turn, Dave must face insurmountable obstacles to help his friend and find a way home. Running on pure adrenaline, Dave will find that hardships build strength -but will he have enough to overcome?
