Cody Trumbull is a 22-year-old, dead-end pharmacy clerk with severe anxiety-which only gets worse when he discovers that his entire life is a lie, and that he may be nothing more than an NPC inside a simulated reality built around a single, ordinary man: David Harkin.

Fortunately, he's not alone.

After encountering a group of fellow 'Glitchers, ' Cody learns the truth: they are all doomed to follow Harkin, trapped within the fragile bubble of reality that surrounds him. Stray too far, and they risk being swallowed by the endless white void beyond-a place where unseen, hostile forces exist.

When an attempt is made on Harkin's life, Cody and the other Glitchers begin to suspect that someone-or something-is hunting him within the simulation.

As paranoia spreads and trust begins to fracture, they are forced into a desperate mission: protect the most important man in their world.

Because if he dies...

what happens to them?
