Summary:
In Hong Kong, four friends are on a secret mission to retrieve a hostage
named Mei from a dangerous triad. Halene is the leader, the creative mastermind.
Daniel is the logical one and the client convincer. Sam is the translator. And
last but not least, there’s Bailey, the comforter, who calms clients amid
intense situations. After escaping with Mei, Sam and Bailey are left to watch over her while
Halene and Daniel set the rest of their removal plan in motion. But a gunman
discovers them and shoots Bailey in the shoulder…

Soon after the shocking end to her last sleep attack, both her dream life and her real life take an astonishing turn…
