The plot of this book revolves around a family who is trying to runaway from something. The father named Eric Ross is trying to move with his two daughters while their mother was absent. In order to secure a stable future, Eric accepts a job in small town where an old lady offers a large sum of money to the ones willing to reside in mysterious house and document its spooky incidences. Despite the unclear nature of this offer, Eric sees it as an opportunity to provide the stability for his daughters considering risky jobs they had been doing previously.
