Whilst investigating the death of a local detective, a popular senator called Matt Blunder uncovers a legend about a supernaturally-cursed, silver gun circulating throughout Wales. As soon as anyone uses the gun, he or she has exactly 65 days left to live.
The doomed few appear to be ordinary people during day to day life, but when photographed, they look mirrored. A marked person feels like a chilly goldfish to touch.
Matt gets hold of the gun, refusing to believe the superstition. A collage of images flash into his mind: a fragile dog balancing on a ledge , an old newspaper headline about a biking accident, a creepy kitten ranting about ankles and a drinking well located in a wild place.
When Matt notices his hands have goldfish-like properties, he realizes that the curse of the silver gun is true and calls in his girlfriend, a author called Nadine Smith, to help.
Nadine examines the gun and willingly submits herself to the curse. She finds that the same visions flash before his eyes. She finds the fragile dog balancing on a ledge particularly chilling. She joins the queue for a supernatural death.
Matt and Nadine pursue a quest to uncover the meaning of the visions, starting with a search for the crepy kitten. Will they be able to stop the curse before their time is up?
Gwen, desperate to feel something, kills someone. But she quickly learns that one kill is never enough. Can Gwen stop before she turns on her own family?

*****
It was just an experiment. Simply kill one person to see what it felt like. See beauty in the moment of death. See if it filled the void within her. It didn't. Nor did it the next time. Or the next. Gwen is an ordinary person. Wife to Amanda. Mother to Grace and Alexandra. Suddenly, she is no longer ordinary as she finds herself battling her urges and demons before she hurts those closest to her. But is it already too late?
