Following the death of her husband, Lady Kiera Darby has taken refuge at her sister's estate, finding solace in her passion for painting.

When their search leads them to even more gruesome discoveries, a series of disturbing notes urges her to give up the inquiry. But Kiera is determined to protect her family and prove her innocence, eve as she risks becoming the next victim....
