The couple are under severe pressure; since Cain returned from active duty, their finances are tight and starting a family has become more difficult than they expected. 

But when Lina inherits an old lake house, they decide to rent it out on weekends as a way to ease their money troubles.

At first the plan seems harmless, even promising. The house is beautiful, guests are keen, and the extra income is welcome. But as strangers come and go, Lina begins to feel uneasy.
