With the arrival of the mysterious family just weeks before school is to let out, life suddenly becomes appealing.

As the town falls under the hypnotic spell of the young men, no one but Hilary sees the peculiar loyalty that holds them together and the lengths they will go to give their mother what she needs until it's far too late.
