In the quaint town of Everbrook, artist Alex Harper's drawings eerily predict murder scenes. When a body is discovered at the old mansion he sketched, Alex finds himself the prime suspect in a chilling series of killings. As he partners with Detective Sarah Connors to uncover the truth, their growing bond complicates matters further. With each sketch revealing dark secrets, Alex must unravel the mystery of his gift before the killer strikes again, and before he loses everything he holds dear.
