In Whispering Pines, Halloween horrors involve more than goblins and ghouls.

With only a smattering of tourists visiting the village for the Samhain feast, Jayne is excited ... no. She's looking forward to ... no. Jayne is guardedly optimistic about spending a few days with her demanding sister. Then a boy goes missing during trick-or-treating and everything changes.

The parents aren't worried. Their son does this, they say. With a storm bearing down on the village, though, Jayne isn't content to dismiss this as a case of a curious kid off exploring the woods. Organizing a search-and-rescue mission gives her plenty to deal with but then the word "kidnapped" is mentioned and brings her sister's long-buried nightmare into the light, forcing Jayne to divide her attention at the worst possible time.
