Macon is a tattoo artist, fascinated by pleasure and pain, preparing to run the San Diego marathon. During the darkness of a predawn warm-up run, Macon's family gets taken hostage by two deranged parents. They are strung out on bath salts, live in a drug tunnel, and feed their twin children the blood of their victims.
True pain, for Macon, has just begun.
A harrowing, twenty-four hour test begins for Macon to rescue his family. Their love will be tested in horrific measures. Family meets family, and mother meets mother, in a world where the saying is confirmed: "Mother is the name for God on the lips of all children."
