Having endured years of abuse and neglect, she's become hardened to the world around her. She's flirted with depression and anxiety, and she's haunted by premonitions. When a strange man approaches Aubrey with information about her past, she knows her life is about to change. Inside the envelope is the deed to a house in Ohio-her ancestral home.

Then she meets Hank Metzger, the town's sheriff, whose family has an eerie connection to her own. As the secrets of Desolate Ridge are unearthed, Aubrey begins to understand her destiny is tied to Hank's in a way she cannot escape.
