Buried secrets are coming to the surface...

Annie has avoided returning to her hometown of Ridgewater since the terrible night twelve years ago when her childhood best friend, Giselle, lost her life. But now Annie’s brother has been injured in an accident identical to Giselle’s, and she knows she must go back.

Giselle’s mother – still living in the house next door to Annie’s family – is as creepy as ever, consumed with the memories of her dead daughter. Natalie, another of Annie’s old friends, is similarly obsessed, desperate to uncover the truth of what really happened that night.

Then Annie and Natalie discover that another girl went missing in Ridgewater around that time. Could Annie’s brother be involved? And was there really a voice calling ‘let me out’ from behind a locked door?

As the connection between Annie’s family and the tragedy twelve years before starts to emerge, things grow more sinister – and Annie’s own safety comes under threat.

Is Ridgewater about to claim another victim?
