"The dead don't come back." These words, meant to comfort a child grieving a pet, form the bedrock of our understanding about death's finality. But what happens when this fundamental truth shatters? In the small town surrounding Lake Lamont, Samantha is about to discover the terrifying answer. As the school's feared bully, she's perfected the art of cruelty - especially toward her former best friend Rachel. But when a moment of rage at the lake's edge leads to an unforgivable act, Samantha finds herself trapped in a nightmare where the impossible becomes reality. The lake, it seems, has been waiting for someone like her - someone whose darkness could awaken what lurks beneath its placid surface. And now, as the boundary between life and death blurs, Samantha must confront not just the monster she created but the monster she's become.
