In the feverish heat of 1929, Beatrice Grace was involved in a tragic incident- a drowning by the lake where she spent her childhood.  As one of the few who had seen Evelyn Young in her last moments, she became trapped in a web of whispers, secrets and half-truths, compelling her to escape her small town. 

When Beatrice returns to Winthrop's Hollow in 1933, accompanied by the frigid chill of both the weather and her former friends, the murmurs still haven't died. Her sudden reappearance takes everyone by surprise and suspicions start to resurface. It all makes Beatrice wonder. 

Is it just a series of coincidences or is she really cursed?
