As the anniversary of the abduction approaches, freelance journalist Jase Deering begins to investigate a case gone cold for the police. What he finds is a paranoid former nanny who had the word “mirrorrorrim” carved into her flesh that fateful day and a trail that leads to a fabled figure, Aubrey Hart Morick. Morick, dead for many years, was an iconic practitioner of the black arts whose legacies are a scandalous reputation and a son named Graham. Increasingly convinced that Graham Morick is more than the simple, innocent man he claims to be, Jase Deering finds the line between natural and supernatural beginning to blur. His determined search for the truth may cost him, and everyone he holds dear, more than he can bear.

Years after two boys are abducted from their home, under the care of an attentive babysitter, the unresolved disappearance, which had destroyed their mother and brought to light details about their troubled father's life, still resonates with the inhabitants of a small Midwestern town, including a reporter who had covered the case, which bears an eerie similarity to the disappearance of his own brother.
