As the whispers of the dead grow louder, and the threats of the living become more dangerous, Jamie's quest for answers will lead him  into the arms of unseen forces, and to the very brink of the abyss. Will he emerge unscathed, or will he be the next to succumb to the curse that lies beneath the gravestone?

Prepare for a tale where every heartbeat is a countdown, every shadow hides a secret, and every page turn is a dance with destiny.
