On New Year, Lana, Honda and Yuki travel to the countryside to confront Honda's mother, a fierce elderly woman who quickly turns on Lana and accuses her to be nothing but the symptom of her son's midlife crisis. But it turns out that the head of the Honda's clan isn't the worst thing waiting for our trio in Nikko.
Lana's nightmare becomes reality. The evil plaguing her dreams finds her and brands her, threatening to destroy everything and everyone she holds dear. But Lana is done running and will stop at nothing to save her loved ones.
Pure joy and sweet bliss turns into utter horror and heartbreaking agony. Harrowing sacrifice allows a battered Lana and her mournful companions to begin a new life as a family. Healing is a slow process, though, and Lana battles with herself to understand her new identity and family dynamics.
But true deliverance and peace will come only when she confronts her real enemy.
