Nineteen-year-old Elisabeth can finally breathe.

Her cosy cabin is quiet. Isolated. Safe. She is determined to be alone - far away from everyone she knows and the memories that haunt her.

When a snowstorm plunges the town into darkness, Elisabeth reluctantly accepts help from Noah, the town's young sheriff. As the two grow close, Elisabeth begins to realise that she can't stay hidden forever; embracing the dark might be the only way to let the light in.
