Every thirty years on the anniversary of Mae White's suicide, the young men of Rickdale succumb to grisly deaths. Tales circulate of a beautiful hitchhiker in a white dress wandering up and down the road by Rickers Creek, crying for her babies and looking for a ride home. Those who pick her up are never heard from again. The last time Mae showed up, Jennifer Archer's high school sweetheart disappeared. Now, she fears her son will meet the same fate. She's willing to do whatever it takes to keep him safe, even sacrifice herself, but it's not Jennifer the White Lady wants. Thirty years have passed, and the anniversary falls on a full moon. The Lady in White wanders again, and this time, she brought reinforcements. All the young men Mae collected over the years roam the night, and Jennifer must face her long lost lover. Can she save them both before they disappear for good?
