Two childhood sweethearts haven't spoken in ten years - now in their thirties, they decide to take a second chance at love.

Angie, an illustrator, is focused on a new assignment - a graphic novel of magical realism. She uses her work to escape the reality of her fractious marriage to Edward, whose behaviour has become erratic under pressure from his failing business. Unexpectedly, Angie's estranged mother dies. Inflamed by her death, Angie's sister, Molly, makes an explosive revelation about the sisters' family past, conjuring up memories of a childhood trauma that torment Angie's mind and invade her illustrations. Her real and fictional worlds ominously fuse and come alive in the nightmarish woods of her horrific childhood. It's up to her creative mind to release her from her damning past.

A British agent in the war on terror discovers that he and a suspect have much in common.

Held captive in an underground prison by a sadistic sicko who fancies himself a surgeon, 4 women fight for their lives, knowing the exact time they're scheduled to die thanks to a crudely carved set of numbers on each of their bodies. None of them can remember how they got there, but if any of them figure out the secret to their imprisonment, they stand at least some chance of surviving.
