Scarlett Lattimore arrives at Lilith House, an abandoned mansion built
in 1876, that later housed a reform school for troubled girls, to start
a new life with her seven-year-old daughter.
But between the nearby town with the strange, disconcerting feel, the
deputy sheriff who is equal parts intriguing and suspicious, and the
discovery that their new home holds a dark and violent past, Scarlett
soon begins to question her rash decision.
She is shaken and afraid by the screams that echo in the walls and the
drumbeat that arises from the surrounding woods where the ghost of an
indigenous man is said to roam, seeking vengeance. Her fear is also
personal, because Scarlett knew one of the girls who attended the
school, a friend who escaped into those woods and was never seen again.
They all thought she was a rebellious runaway who later encountered foul
play, but perhaps the truth is far more sinister.
As Scarlett's extraordinary daughter Haddie becomes consumed by the
eerie figure who weaves and beckons through the forest fog, and a legacy
of secrets reveal themselves, it becomes clear both Scarlett and Haddie
are in grave danger. When the past intersects with the present, they
will come face to face with the true evil of Lilith House. An evil that
has lasted for more than a century.
