## Synopsis

Emma, Norman, and Ray are the standout children of Grace Field House, a warm and gentle orphanage where every kid is well fed, well loved, and cared for by the woman they all call Mom. Life is close to perfect, apart from the single unbreakable rule that no one may ever pass beyond the gate. Then one night the three brightest siblings glimpse what really lies on the other side, and the safe little world they trusted is revealed as something far more sinister. To have any hope at all, they'll have to outthink the one person who knows them better than anyone.
