1920, rural Ireland. Anglo Irish twins Rachel and Edward share a strange existence in their crumbling family estate.

When troubled war veteran Sean returns to the nearby village, he is immediately drawn to the mysterious Rachel, who in turn begins to break the rules set out by The Lodgers. The consequences pull Rachel into a deadly confrontation with her brother – and with the curse that haunts them…
