Everything in Tony's life is perfect until two catastrophic events drive him to transform his life. Tony's newlywed wife Virginia realizes that she does not want a life of marriage, and abruptly divorces him. The resulting emotional turmoil motivates Tony to alter his career path as he creates a highly successful food service business. While on his journey to fortune and fame, Tony is devastated by the story of a teenage girl who commits suicide, triggered by sexually explicit deepfake photos of her posted to social media. Tony resolves to combat systematic privacy invasion by eliminating his physical and technological footprints from public scrutiny, going completely off the grid. To do so, Tony conceives of a way to have himself legally declared deceased. Tony's effort to successfully sustain his ruse is threatened by his divorced wife who is envious of the wealth earned by Tony after their marriage ended. In her attempt to recover Tony's estate, Virginia initiates an affair with a nefarious government agent, Richard Armitas. Desperate to keep from being cut off from his romance with the beguiling Virginia, Armitas utilizes his expertise and resources to unravel the mystery behind Tony's apparent death and the inexplicable disappearance of his vast fortune. To cover his tracks, Tony creates fabricated identities not listed in any public or private databases. His personifications enable Tony to peacefully live and work without scrutiny, until Richard Armitas begins to whittle away at the credibility of his pseudo stand-ins. While trying to evade a cross-country pursuit by the experienced Agent Armitas, Tony must decide whether to stay off the grid or come back to the public spotlight to save the life of a high-ranking U.S. Government official who is facing a decision that will impact the nation.
