Now, unbeknownst to them, Max and Annie’s lives become inextricably intertwined with Vincent’s, as his sinister schemes and his detailed list of appointments take them to various places in L.A. Now, five names, five locations, and a dead body in the trunk determine Max’s fate. Who shall live and who shall die in this long and deadly passage into hell?—Nick Riganas
