Rich and powerful, Rosalind Slaymaster is used to getting what she wants - and what she wants is revenge. She has returned to her childhood home, Serenity, Pennsylvania, with her teenage niece Julie to live at Peligro, a sprawling hilltop manor - a far cry from the poverty she grew up in. And now that she's back, she means to control the whole town. But Rosalind's plans do not take into account Julie's new friends - two fatherless boys who have plans of their own.
