What begins as an unexplained shadow in the background of their daughter's photograph, soon turns into an imaginary friend named Maria. It doesn't take long before Gwen notices a change in her daughter's personality.

Ellie Matthews thinks she has the best job on the planet. She's a nanny to a very special little boy. His name is Brahms, and doesn't cause her any trouble. In fact, he's probably the easiest child she's ever had to care for. There's only one small thing...Brahms is a doll. A doll with a strange set of rules she's told she has to follow or risk consequences. Things are going well, until she breaks a rule and discovers that all is not as it seems with the doll. Odd things happen and before long, she's trapped in a snowstorm with a diabolical force who's determined to punish her for breaking the rules. Aided by a journal of a past nanny, can she survive until the family returns? Or will she succumb to the Brahms doll?
