For Sarah and Patrick, family life has always been easy. But when Sarah’s mother dies, it sends Sarah into a downward spiral. Knowing they need a fresh start, Patrick moves the family to the beachside house he grew up in.
But there is a catch: while their new home carries only happy memories for Patrick, to everyone else it’s known as the Murder House – named for the family that was killed there.
