Mimi Shapiro needs to get away. From New York City. From NYU. And from the professor who let things go too far. So when her artist father offers his cottage in a remote part of Canada, she gladly makes the long drive up north. The little house is fairy-tale quaint, and the key is hidden right where her dad said it would be, so Mimi is shocked to ?nd someone already living there? - ?Jay, a young musician, who immediately accuses her of leaving strange and threatening tokens for him: a dead bird, a snake skin, a cricket soundtrack embedded in his latest composition. But Mimi has just arrived, so who is responsible? And more alarmingly, what does the intruder want?
