What secrets hide behind these crumbling walls?
Ivy Manor is every realtor's nightmare. A derelict old pile out in rural Tennessee - with a past even darker than the woods that surround it.
New owner Cal Nolte gets the shock of his life when he finds a bloody handprint smeared across the doorstep.
Detective Chris Bailey arrives to check it out. But his search of the house turns up no body, no weapon - only a terrified young woman and her daughter.
They say they've been hiding out in the empty rooms, waiting for the woman's husband to return. But what are they afraid of?
To add to his frustration, Bailey finds himself on the receiving end of a string of anonymous calls. 'What if I told you I knew where his body was buried?' taunts the voice at the end of the line.
Bailey can't shake the feeling that it's all connected with the goings-on at Ivy Manor.
Then Bailey uncovers a body - hidden away in a forgotten corner of the house. But this man's been dead way too long to have left the fresh red handprint.
So where's the second victim?
The clock is ticking to unravel the secrets of Ivy Manor before the killer strikes again . . .
