In a small, rural Irish town in 1995, a chilling rhyme becomes a reality: "Into the woods. Count to ten. Only one of us comes home again." When thirteen-year-old Saoirse Kellough vanishes into a forest rumored to be haunted, the community is paralyzed by fear. She isn't the first girl to go missing in these trees, but the only person who knows what happened is her younger brother, Jack.

Traumatized and silent, Jack refuses to speak, bound by a "ritual" meant to ward off evil. To break the deadlock, psychotherapist Freya Hemmings is called in. Freya is battling her own personal grief, but she must find a way to reach Jack before time runs out for Saoirse.

As the investigation deepens, the forest's dark secrets begin to surface. In a town where everyone is a suspect, Freya and Jack find themselves in increasing danger. This emotional thriller explores the thin line between childhood myths and the terrifying reality of a race against time.
