After a global crisis causes crops to fail and species to disappear, something even more deadly happens. Masses around the world suddenly became predators, feeding off their own kind. These ‘Can Heads grow to such a threat that fences, gated compounds, and SWAT-style police protection become absolutely necessary to live. When one attack leaves NYPD cop Jack Murphy wounded and his partner dead, Jack takes his family on a vacation to the Paterville Family Camp, a fortress-like compound in the mountains where families can still have fun. At first, its idyllic. When the camp suffers an attack, Jack even helps defend it—and is immediately offered a job in security. But Jack slowly comes to realize that something else is going on at the camp, and soon he will be forced to get his family out, no matter who—or what—stands in his way.
