What if revenge ripples and echoes through time?

Once upon a time, a girl was born to a family with only boys, a sturdy brood of New Englanders who never found it in their hearts to appreciate someone different from them. They broke her heart and almost broke her, but she got away.

Decades later, the Bakers are headed for a perfect family vacation. A full month at a house by the lake. A house passed down from a mysterious aunt no one ever talks about. Love and good intentions aside, what begins like a relaxing vacation turns into a nightmare as each of the Bakers’ nerves slowly but steadily begin to fray away at the edges. Are the Bakers’ true selves finally being peeled away, layer by layer? Or is it the house, and will it ever let them leave?
