Egesa Springs is a quiet, picturesque town nestled deep in a valley along the Pennsylvania mountains, but then the sun goes down. Children disappear and adults vanish or die in mysterious accidents.

Cierra Lancing believes she knows the secrets buried in Egesa Springs. She has healed from her nearly fatal wounds and returns to the town with her pistol and dog. Unwilling to trust anyone other than herself, she's determined to find the children she was taken from and to protect her youngest daughter from the doom the town has planned for her. What Cierra doesn't expect to find is love with the man who has watched over her children while she was gone, but does she dare trust Tristen Durant?

Neither of them realizes the evil hiding beneath the town or the mysteries living within the mansion inn. With the help of an 1827 murder victim, Cierra struggles to overcome a curse placed on the town over a hundred and fifty years before to save herself and her children.
