Filmmaker Sean O'Hara aches to see how the unsolved crime haunts her and Sean knows more than a little about ghosts.

As Vanessa and Sean grow closer, the killer prepares to resume the slaughter...unless the dead can intervene.

Reclusive collector Cutter Merlin is seldom seen in Key West and lately, not at all. Officer Liam Beckett visits Merlin's curious house and discovers the gentleman in his study. In his death grip is a volume of occult lore and a reliquary. His eyes are wide with fright and his mouth a horrified gape where spiders now dwell. Kelsey Donovan returns to the old house to catalogue her estranged grandfather's collection of artefacts and antiquities vowing to see his treasures divested properly. But she cannot ignore the sense that she's being watched, the reports of malevolent black figures, and the pervasive smell of death. Is the Merlin house haunted, or even cursed? Liam knows well that some ghost stories are true and he swears to protect Kelsey. But there are forces at work for whom one more life is a pittance to pay for their deepest desire
