After a journalist vanishes in a quiet Gulf Coast town, private investigators Naomi Graves and Jade Stokes uncover a chilling government experiment designed to erase entire Black neighborhoods from history—forcing them to fight a reality where memories disappear, time fractures, and the truth itself is being hunted.
