When promising young medical student Andrew Wade rejects the advances of a fiery mountain girl determined to entrap him, she demands help from the local medicine woman known for black sorcery. The curse is one of selfish revenge, and its dark consequences doom the girl to her death and cast Andrew to his hopeless exile--in a painting.
A century later, Abigail Matthews, a successful Ohio defense attorney who disillusioned with a career built on lies and manipulation of rules, sets off to the Ozark Mountains for a time of soul-searching solitude. En route, an unrelenting urge compels her to stop at a roadside antique shop where she finds and buys a disturbingly mysterious painting. The painting draws Abbie into it, transporting her into Andrew's dark world.
Neither of them realizes the key to their escape from this bewitched world is love without constraints, and Abbie is the one who holds that key.
Can she unlock her heart and the doorway to freedom before it's too late?
