Where do you go when everything falls apart? Home, of course. But unfortunately the ghosts of the past have a habit of awakening when you get there.

Orphaned Liz is twenty-five, rocked by an unexpected divorce, and without even the slightest clue what to do with her life now. She returns to her childhood home in Louisiana, hoping to pick up the pieces while working to overcome her own self-hate and feelings of abandonment. But somehow the familiar surroundings don't feel as friendly as they used to, and there may be something in the shadows of the old house on the riverbank that doesn't want to let her go again...ever.
