Amanda and her younger brother Josh moved with their parents to a new town named Dark Falls, into a house that their father recently inherited from a relative he had never heard of. They soon discover that the other children that they have seen are all deceased, having all died in the house the Bensons just moved into, and they have to kill one person a year to "stay undead", a task for which they look to Amanda and her family.

In a novel that grips like a waking nightmare, master storyteller Joy Fielding creates a searing examination of a horrifying crime, the limits of the law, and a woman's terrifying journey into a killer's twisted mind. In one tragic afternoon everything changed. Until then, Gail Walton had considered herself lucky. With a successful husband, two daughters, and a house in the New Jersey suburbs, Gail lived a safe and predictable life. Then the unthinkable happened: her six-year-old daughter Cindy was abducted, sexually assaulted, and murdered.
