Легенды опасны. Не стоит их недооценивать. Жизнь шестнадцатилетней Бри омрачила внезапная гибель матери. Учеба в университете – единственная для нее возможность перенести трагедию. Наконец-то она будет вдали от дома, чрезмерной опеки отца и преследующих воспоминаний. Но первый день в кампусе стал полнейшей неожиданностью.
