"After Uncle Monty died, the Baudelaires are sent to live with Aunt Josephine, a woman with lots of phobias. They feel safe, until their greatest enemy, Count Olaf returns. He convinced Aunt Josephine to commit suicide and leave the Baudelaires to his care in order to get the Baudelaire fortune. But the Baudelaires aren't as stupid as some people. They found out that Aunt Josephine is still alive and hiding in one of the caves along the edge of Lachrymose Lake."
