A curse that originated in 1635 at the British estate called The Bridge returns in the year 1866 to haunt, Elsie, the newly married, newly widowed pregnant lady of the The Bridge. The curse comes in the form of lifelike painted wooden characters bought as a lark by the then lady of the estate in 1635 and called companions. In 1866 the companions have now come to resemble persons from 1635 that were involved in the original story that created the curse; a story written down in two journals by the then lady of the estate, Anne, and locked away in a shuttered room of the great house. At the opening of the book, the reader finds a badly burned Elsie confined to a mental ward in a hospital retelling the tale of the horrible supernatural events that occurred at The Bridge to an attending physician. How he interprets her story may decide whether she will be convicted of crimes, be sent to an insane asylum or least likely freed. This is a tale that starts out strange and builds to horrible with a nasty twist at the end.
