However, something inside her tells her that her boyfriend, the refined Dr Malcolm Westbridge, is a keeper. After all, the couple wants to celebrate their first anniversary, and Malcolm has planned everything down to the last detail: the family cabin offers complete isolation, and his chocolate cake is to die for. But disappointment often exists between expectation and reality. As unwanted guests spoil the mood, Liz starts to question herself, their romance, and her sanity. Are the hair-raising apparitions genuine or figments of her imagination? Is the nameless peril that surrounds Liz real or in her head?
