A silver champagne bucket filled with goat's blood is just another Tuesday for Devraj Chatterjee, whose family home, Blackwood Manor, is a bizarre museum of the supernatural. But when a seventy-year-old blood pact with a New England forest entity comes due, the domestic oddities turn deadly. His grandfather traded absolute prosperity for an impossible debt, and now, the Collector has arrived ahead of schedule, threatening not just Devraj's future, but the life of the woman he loves. As the mansion hums with dark magic and ancient contracts, Devraj must confront a terrifying truth: the wealth that built his empire was a trap, and the only way out might be to rewrite history itself. Can he outwit a timeless entity, or will his family's dark inheritance claim its ultimate price?
