When a high-speed chase goes terribly wrong, Santa Fe
police officer Dan Page watches in horror as a car and gas
tanker explode into flames. Torn with guilt that he may be
responsible, Page returns home to discover that his wife,
Tori, has disappeared.
Frantic, Page follows her trail
to Rostov, a remote town in Texas famous for a massive
astronomical observatory, a long-abandoned military base,
and unexplained nighttime phenomena that draw onlookers
from every corner of the globe. Many of these gawkers—Tori
among them—are compelled to visit this tiny
community to witness the mysterious Rostov
Lights.
Without warning, a gunman begins firing on the
lights, screaming “Go back to hell where you came
from,” then turns his rifle on the bystanders. A
bloodbath ensues, and events quickly spiral out of
control, setting the stage for even greater violence and
death.
Page must solve the mystery of the Rostov Lights
to save his wife. In the process, he learns that the
decaying military base may not be abandoned at all, and
that the government may have known about the lights for
decades. Could these phenomena be more dangerous than
anyone could have possibly imagined?
