Paranormal investigator Katya Sokolov receives an urgent call to Chicago. A documentary crew exploring the wreck of the Jerry McGuen has lost two divers to mysterious deaths. The freighter sank in Lake Michigan in 1898, carrying a stolen Egyptian sorcerer's sarcophagus and every soul aboard. Now something deadly stirs within the submerged vessel. The first diver, a veteran expert in ghost ships, died without explanation in the main saloon. When a second diver perishes, panic spreads through the expedition. The desperate financier turns to Kat for help. Working alongside media forensics specialist Will Chan, she must descend into waters that hide an evil stretching back to pharaonic times. As Kat investigates, she discovers that some ancient curses refuse to stay buried beneath the waves.
