" Fifteen year old Angel Sullivan has been enduring the taunts of her classmates and the abuse of an acholic father. So when Angel's family moves to Roundtree, Massachusetts to a house and a promising job for Angel's father but most of all Angel, who only want to have a friend, gets the chance to make a brand new start. But when she is shunned by her new classmates, Angel falls deeper into despair. Until she meets Seth Baker, a fellow outcast and a kinship is forged.
It's Seth who tells Angel about the legacy of murder that hangs over her family's home and the rumors that something supernatural still dwells there. Uncertain whether the stories are true, Angel and Seth devote themselves to contacting whatever restless souls haunts the house. But once they begun there is no turning back. Guided by a vengeful spirit, they uncover the shocking events that lay buried beneath Roundtree. "
