Whilst investigating the death of a local actor, a smart police officer called Georgina Ramsbottom uncovers a legend about a supernaturally-cursed, peculiar map circulating throughout Devon. As soon as anyone uses the map, he or she has exactly 24 days left to live.
The doomed few appear to be ordinary people during day to day life, but when photographed, they look translucent. A marked person feels like an industrial rabbit to touch.
Georgina gets hold of the map, refusing to believe the superstition. A collage of images flash into her mind: a wicked hamster balancing on a sleepy actor, an old newspaper headline about a skating accident, a hooded rat ranting about abs and a drinking well located in a creepy place.
When Georgina notices her moles have rabbit-like properties, she realises that the curse of the peculiar map is true and calls in her sister, a actor called Beth Sparrow, to help.
Beth examines the map and willingly submits herself to the curse. She finds that the same visions flash before his eyes. She finds the wicked hamster balancing on a sleepy actor particularly chilling. She joins the queue for a supernatural death.
Georgina and Beth pursue a quest to uncover the meaning of the visions, starting with a search for the hooded rat. Will they be able to stop the curse before their time is up?
