After years on the police force, Annie Graham never expected that it would be her personal life leaving her physically and emotionally scarred.

While on a break from work, trying to put the pieces of her life back together, the role of caretaker to a beautiful, crumbling mansion in the woods seems like a good escape.

But something about the house puts her on edge, and her suspicions are confirmed when she finds the diary of former resident Alice. The house holds a dark connection to a series of terrible murders committed over one hundred years ago.

And when a search for a missing girl turns into a hunt for a serial killer, Annie fears that history may be repeating itself. But as the past collides with the present, has Annie’s unofficial investigation put her in the killer’s sights?
