Four years after the sudden death of his wife, Jo, bestselling novelist Mike Noonan is still tormented by grief and writer's block. Plagued by vivid nightmares of their isolated summer home in Maine, called 'Sara Laughs,' he reluctantly returns to the lakeside retreat to confront his fears. Once there, Mike finds himself drawn into a struggle involving a young widow named Mattie Devore and her three-year-old daughter, Kyra, who are being threatened by Mattie's wealthy and ruthless millionaire father-in-law, Max Devore, who is attempting to gain custody of the child. As Mike helps Mattie and falls for her, he is also pulled into the unsettling mystery of Sara Laughs, which is now the site of ghostly visitations and escalating terrors. He begins to uncover a dark past connected to the house and the community, involving a 1930s racial massacre and the vengeful spirit of a Black singer named Sara Tidwell, a history that his late wife had been investigating before her death. Mike must face both the secrets of the past and the supernatural forces that seek justice through his intervention.
