A Supernatural Thriller in which Paul Reddick returns to Mad River after a long absence. Upon the mysterious demise of his cousin, Duncan McIlwraith, he has inherited the Homestead, settled a century before by his ancestor, a fur trader called Red Jake.
Paul's eccentric Aunt Claire claims the house is haunted.
Arthur Brassfield, the art dealer who discovered Duncan's corpse, is later found dead in a tableau eerily similar to Duncan's death.
Pivotal to the story is a Soul Catcher, or keeper of breath, used by shamans for soul retrieval. Captain Jack, a fearsome warlock known to his people as Walks In Dark Places, corrupted this fetish to enslave lost souls.
Daniel Moon steals the tainted talisman from his father's grave house, setting in motion a curse which plagues the Mad River Country for more than a century.
Tasked with ending this curse, Paul becomes immersed in the dark depths of family history and is forced to navigate the perilous shoals of supernatural forces he scarcely comprehends
