Given this second chance, Hatch and his wife, Lindsey approach each day with a new appreciation for the beauty of life - until a series of mysterious and frightening events brings them face to face with the unknown.

When people who have wronged the Harrisons begin to die violently, Hatch comes to doubt his own innocence - and must confront the possibility that this life is just a prelude to antoher, darker place. He and Lindsey are forced to fight not only for their own survival but for that of Regina, the delightful and exceptional disabled child who has given meaning and purpose to their lives. With growing desperation, Lindseya nd Hatch seek the truth along a twisted trail that leads eventually to an abandoned amusement park - and a confrontation with purest evil.
