    After five years, the nightmares that she had every night reminded her repeatedly of the things she went through as a child, and the murder she witnessed when she was a teenager. When the opportunity presented itself, Lisa moved away from her family and created a life that didn’t involve them. Lisa had great friends and strived for the normal life that she craved. Everything was going as planned, until her routine life was interrupted by a phone call from the brother that she feared. Lisa was brought back to the place that she vowed to never return to. It was her childhood home that held secrets and lies of a life that she no longer wanted. Her therapist, Dr. Mage, encouraged her to spend time with her siblings in their time of need, but a trip to the cabin, made Lisa realize how angry she was. Not only at her mother, but at a woman that took her brother under her wing and created the monster that he was. They called her Aunt Janet, a name in the household that no one was able to say without looking behind them. She was ruthless and evil in the cruelest way. Lisa didn’t like it and couldn’t wait to go back home when she heard that her brother and sister had been keeping in touch with her. But, a long-lost friend helped her cope with her reality and promised her that he would stay by her side, no matter what. In turn, it made Lisa think twice about leaving. She wanted to give him a chance, but knew that it was going to be difficult to let him in. Especially with a serial killer for a brother and an Aunt. Will Lisa be able to save her family from the woman that caused them so much pain, or will Aunt Janet have the last laugh?
