The salty breeze stings Tony's face, and the splash of cold sea water drips down his skin as a camera snaps a close-up of his smile. Suddenly, his picture is everywhere, and strange things start to happen. Who is the mysterious Beady Eyes watching him, and why is a car always following? Tony’s world flips upside down, and danger lurks just around the corner.
