When is truth nothing more than an illusion?
Dwight returns to his hometown after a divorce, determined to pick up the pieces of his life and finish writing his second book. After all, the first one was a bestseller. Instead, he gets pulled into a bizarre conspiracy involving a shadowy group trying to spread misinformation through a series of videos detailing odd stories of Vikings, mermaids, and space aliens. Who are these people, and why do so many actually believe the lies they are spreading?
When it becomes clear that Dwight must try to do something before the group spreads their lies further, he and his girlfriend team up with a reporter to uncover the truth about who is pulling the strings. From watching the videos online to attending rallies filled with thousands of supporters, it soon becomes clear that many people believe the Vikings and mermaids stories. Dwight knows some of their plans and the kind of future they are trying to encourage, a future that can turn out to be very dangerous for anyone who disagrees.
Can one former college professor and his girlfriend stop this group, or will the body count continue to rise?
