Train detective Harrison Beck and his Uncle Nat receive a mysterious letter from an old friend asking for their help to investigate a deadly family curse. But no one really believes in curses, do they...?

From a creaking old house at the foot of the Harz mountains, they take the family's funeral train to the peak of the Brocken Mountain. Can Hal reveal the secrets of Dead Man's Pass and the family curse before disaster strikes?
