  Twelve-year-old Hailey Madison and her family are trading the hustle-and-bustle of the city for a farmhouse in the town of Harper's Fall, and Hailey isn't happy about it. Hailey's parents think the move will be beneficial for her little sister, Emma, who has always been uneasy around large crowds, but Hailey is convinced life on a farm will be dull. 
   
   
   
  She's wrong. 
   
   
   
  Over the years, there has been a string of disappearances in Harper's Fall, and it seems they may be linked to an old cornfield on the farm's property. Local legend has it the ghost of an old farmer wanders the farm on his horse pulling a hayrack, luring children on a hayride, and once he takes them into the cornfield, they're gone forever. 
   
   
   
  It's all ridiculous . . . right? 
   
   
   
  That's when the farmer gets to Emma on one eerie fall night, and all Hailey can do is watch in horror as the ghost takes Emma into the corn. Now Emma must rescue her little sister—and she's ready to make a deal with the devil in order to do it.
