They say that the abandoned castle Aiden is enchanted. Enchanted to protect the town from the evil forces, enchanted to stay forever on the hill not far away. Enormous and devastated symbol of the town's immortality that lived through the great fire. For Kay Stewart, this place is a death shelter, where she found the dead man; for Cassie Sayshlee, this is a home for illusions. Five years ago, they accidentally found themselves in the castle, and everyone saw what they should have seen: death, illusion, and loss. What will happen when they gather under Aiden's roof again?
Who will become its posthumous hostage this time?
