Based on the novel by Joanna Aiken. Architect David Brian and his wife Helen are going through a difficult family crisis, which also affects their young daughter Creek. One morning, the curious Bronski family, who live in a van, invite them to their home. For David, this comes as a shock. The man he meets, Kappy, turns out to be none other than a disabled man who survived the collapse of a building he designed three years earlier, which killed seven people. To avoid scandal, he hires him as a gardener and his wife as a nanny. The Bronski family gradually settles into the house with the sole purpose of turning the owners’ lives into hell and taking revenge.
