She fled to Virginia for one last shot at a relationship.

But the cabin she enters is laced with sin and duplicity.

And a dark and stormy night awaits the unsuspecting victims.

-+-

Maeve wants another chance with her distanced boyfriend, Perry. After he calls, daring her to stay with him in a remote cabin for the rest of her life, she takes the next bus to Damascus and plans her isolated future. However, the situation shifts rapidly when Perry invites a neighboring couple to join the mix and camp with them for the night. All seems to be going well until a booming knock sounds on the door, and a strange man pleads for entry, begging for anything better than sleeping in the rain and thunder. As suspicious as he may be, the two couples allow him to enter the cabin. Unfortunately, the moment the door closes is the moment Maeve realizes the night will not end quickly. Someone is found dead.
