It's 1962, and Violet Romero, a young woman searching for peace after a horrible tragedy, finds herself in an unexpected place - managing funerals at Berwick, an antebellum mansion-turned-mortuary in Lexington, Kentucky. Her employer, Henry Pendleton, a botany-obsessed mortician, seems harmless, but Violet believes that he is hiding something. Following her instincts, Violet discovers a hidden room in Berwick that offers a glimpse into the mansion's dark past, and gives Violet cause to be wary of her secretive boss.

Violet soon understands that a reckoning is coming to upset Henry's quiet life, and she is caught squarely in the rising tide of wrath and revenge. To appreciate the forces at play, Violet must dig deep into the past to find clues relating to a 117-year-old murder involving Berwick's first owner, the enigmatic Pleasant Driscoll. She must also uncover Berwick's connection to a vicious cult from the jungles of southern Mexico that may have found its way out of legend and into the Bluegrass State.

Time is running out. If Violet doesn't unravel the mysteries of Berwick, she too will become a part of its tragic history.
