Fleeing from a nine-year abusive marriage, Audra Banner boards a small passenger plane that never makes it to its destination. Thinking she is the sole survivor, injured and scared, Audra is relieved when another passenger, Luke, an Irish, one-armed rock climber, finds her near the wreckage. They rapidly try to figure out how to survive, waiting to be rescued. Opening the cargo hatch of the wrecked plane for supplies, they find the plane was on a much more nefarious mission. This now puts them in danger for their lives and on the run. They discover the plane was way off course when it crashed and need to traverse the Idaho wilderness to get to the nearest town... days away and on the other side of the mountains.
Audra has to learn to believe in her own strength, trust a man she just met, and conquer the fear inside her, which held her down for almost a decade. Not only do they have to find a way out, they also need to lean on each other to survive and continue on the run to stay ahead of those who want them dead. Luke proves to be the friend Audra has needed the most. His life struggles offer a different perspective for Audra, and the push she needs to climb outside of her own mind.
