Daniel West is a recently unemployed young man who finds out that a distant relative left him an inheritance in the small town of Stillwater, so he and his best friend decide to take a road trip. When they arrive, however, they find that something is terribly wrong with the town. A young boy falls from a rooftop, breaking his neck, but a few minutes later, he's up and running again.
That's because in the town of Stillwater, nobody dies. And the people of Stillwater — including the trigger-happy cops — want to make sure that their secret doesn't get out. By any means.
