When Carter Braddock was eleven, he was sent to a mental institution after committing several murders for his best friend, Allison Baker. There, he made a deal with the devil. His soul, in exchange for Allison. The devil told him he couldn’t give Carter a person. Carter would have to take her, and what the devil offered him was the power to do that. Carter accepted, only to learn that the devil played a cruel joke, when Carter was told the next day that Allison Baker was dead. Carter would never have her. Every day since, for sixteen years, Carter Braddock sat mute in his institution cell, drawing pictures of Allison. His obsession. Until Carter learns that she has been alive all along. Now, he will stop at absolutely nothing to have her.
