Struggling with loneliness, Lena Mae rents out her daughter's old room to a young woman named Brianna, who presents herself as a victim of bad luck.

As she uncovers the truth, the stakes rise in this psychological battle, forcing Lena Mae to confront the serpent she has unwittingly welcomed into her life. The story unfolds as a gripping exploration of betrayal, revenge, and the lengths a mother will go to protect her child.
