After her marriage unexpectedly ends, 26 year old Marisa takes her cat and moves halfway across the country for a fresh start in a nowhere town on the Maine coast. With free lodging in the form of housesitting a cozy, log cabin, Marisa makes herself overlook the town's local legend about the woman who lived there first. Some people believe Evie killed a guy, others think she cursed him, but everyone knows neither she nor her alleged victim have been seen for two decades.

When Marisa stumbles across Evie's journal in the house, strange things start occurring around her. Animals scratch at the windows and walls of the house, invisible eyes watch her every move, and, somehow, a horse appears in the previously empty barn. And that's before the hallucinations start.

With no one else to turn to, Marisa seeks the reluctant help of her new friend, Jonah, to solve the mystery of what Evie did and where she went and determine if her ghost is responsible for the strange events surrounding Marisa. Marisa must uncover the truth about the entity haunting her house, or risk losing a chance at a fresh start, or worse, her life.
