Even your most deeply buried secrets can find their way back to you.

The mysteries of Agatha's past -- which is rife with mythical gods and magical creatures -- threaten to expose themselves when Joseph investigates a noise he hears in the middle of the night and stumbles upon a world that he didn't even know existed. Her quiet life in the suburbs is about to come crashing down around her.

When their son is kidnapped, Joseph and Agatha have to rely on each other to figure out why he was taken and how to get him back, whatever the cost.

Along the way, Agatha discovers to her horror that even her most deeply buried secrets are finding their way back to her. And the consequences are inescapable.
