Set in 1990, a small town becomes the backdrop for a chilling tale of suspense and the supernatural. Ruby and his mother, Evelyn, have just moved to a quiet neighborhood in the small town of Ridgepoint, seeking a fresh start after their lives unraveled in their hometown of New Jersey. At first, everything seems promising-Ruby quickly makes new friends, adjusts to new neighborhood, and starts settling into the peaceful community. For a while, it feels like they've found the fresh start they desperately needed. However, it doesn't take long for Ruby to sense that something is off in Ridgepoint. Beneath the surface of this seemingly idyllic town, there's a dark, unsettling current. Stories of unexplained suicides, drug problems, and unsolved disappearances seem to haunt the area, and Ruby finds himself drawn into the town's eerie secrets. The more he uncovers, the more he realizes that Ridgepoint isn't the safe haven it appeared to be. As he delves deeper, Ruby discovers a web of secrets that ties many of the town's residents together in unexpected ways. What began as a fresh start quickly spirals into a nightmare as Ruby uncovers dark truths about the people around him, and its haunting connection to the tragedies that continue to plague the community.
