Playmate, come out and play with me,
and bring your dollies three.
Climb up my apple tree,
look down my rain barrel,
slide down my cellar door,
and we'll be jolly friends forevermore.

For Evie Archer, the story of Holly Hobbie's disappearance is something only told in hushed conversations within her family. But seeking a fresh start after a difficult divorce, Evie's mother moves the family to the Hobbie House in Ravenglass, Massachusetts, the very place where Holly vanished one night without a trace more than forty years ago.

When Evie finds Holly's diary, a strange shadow begins to follow her everywhere she goes, and her dreams are plagued by nightmares of a bonneted girl. Could it be Holly trying to reach out to her? Or is it something else? Something worse?

Evie decides to investigate what happened the night Holly disappeared. But the deeper she goes to look for answers, the more she begins to lose herself in the process, until she can no longer tell what's real and what isn't.

Can Evie find out what happened to Holly? Or is history doomed to repeat itself?
