A Game of Life and Death in Small-Town America
In the forgotten town of Carp, New York, summer means more than just oppressive heat and endless boredom. For graduating seniors, it marks the beginning of Panic-an underground game of escalating challenges with a prize pot worth $67,000. This isn't just teenage recklessness; it's a desperate gamble for escape from a place where poverty feels inescapable and futures seem predetermined. The rules are deceptively simple: only seniors can compete, anonymous judges orchestrate increasingly dangerous challenges, and players face elimination until one victor remains. In the seven years since Panic began, three participants have died-their names whispered as both warnings and legends. The game begins at an abandoned quarry with a forty-foot jump into murky waters. Heather Nill, reeling from her boyfriend's betrayal and desperate to escape her trailer park life with an alcoholic mother, makes an impulsive decision to join. Meanwhile, quiet, reserved Dodge Mason watches from the shadows, his participation carefully planned for months. What others don't know is that Dodge's sister was paralyzed in Panic two years ago, and his fearlessness stems not from courage but from a burning desire for revenge. What started as a reckless summer diversion has evolved into something far more sinister-a reflection of Carp itself, where desperation has become the town's defining characteristic. For many participants, Panic represents their only chance at transformation in a place where minimum wage jobs and mobile homes represent the most common future.
