Reed and Leighton thought all their family secrets died with their parents. That is, until the siblings received a call from their estranged grandmother, Violet, who had been searching for them for years. She gives them surprising news: their grandfather Royce will pass soon and a sizable inheritance awaits them on one condition—they pay a visit to Ashfeld Manor, their ancestral home.

The siblings, each with their own hidden motivations, agree. But nothing at Ashfeld Manor is as it seems. The house is falling apart, a humming noise fills the stale air, the sourwood trees around the property are rotting, and a strange creature roams the night sky. As they uncover the roots of their family tree, Reed and Leighton unveil horrific secrets that will forever transform them. Together, they must save each other from their cursed bloodline.
