What to expect

A dark folk horror tale of a deadly family curse, crime, and murder that is sure to turn your blood cold, from the award-winning, New York Times bestselling author of Netflix's The Silence.



When Jodi, BB, and Matt decide to burgle a derelict country home as a thrilling dare, they become embroiled in a twisted legacy of supernatural terror. There are rumors of a bizarre curse hanging over the hoard of antiques and jewelry within the house. And unbeknownst to the others, one member of the trio has darker motives for breaking into the property.



Lem is a brutal man obsessed with a gruesome family legend. He is determined to right the wrongs of the past and lift the curse placed on his bloodline. By completing the work of his father and bringing a bizarre selection of scattered relics back together, he hopes to be free of the malign influence that has hounded every generation of his family for two centuries.



Across a single day a deadly pursuit will culminate on the desolate, storm-swept Crow Island, and those involved are given cause to wonder . . . can believing in a curse deeply enough bring its own bad luck?



Contains mature themes.
