As a child, Eve Holt often visited "the dark place" in her mind to escape from her abusive mother; now, 50 years later, she's spending even more time in that dark place. Emotionally crippled and rejected by her husband, Eve will do anything to be close to her son, Jason, and his new baby, Colette, even if that includes removing the only thing standing in her way: her smart, sexy daughter-in-law, Lisa, a talented artist whom Eve despises. Running from the ghosts of her mother, Cassie, and a neighbor boy called Squidgy, who both died in a fire Eve lit long ago, Eve devises a plan to get rid of Lisa so that she can move in with Jason and Colette, but Cassie and Squidgy have plans of their own.
