A traumatized little girl becomes the target of a ruthless killer after witnessing something unspeakable, and it's up to hardened army ranger Gabe Decker to keep her—and her dedicated psychologist, Trina—alive. Tucked away in a remote cabin, what starts as a protective assignment transforms into something far deeper as Gabe discovers what it means to build a real family. When danger closes in, this strong, capable soldier discovers he's willing to risk everything for the people who've unexpectedly become his whole world.

“Create a playlist called Hide the Child. Atmospheric indie and alternative rock with underlying tension—think Bon Iver's isolation, The National's brooding intensity, and Phoebe Bridgers' haunting vulnerability. Layer in folk-tinged acoustic moments and subtle electronic undertones. Protective, suspenseful, yet achingly tender.”
