In 1918, the Spanish flu swept through the Karoo town of Willowmore, leaving only grief in its wake. Dr. Pieter Vos, the district surgeon, could not save his wife, unborn child, or the many patients who died under his watch. When he vanished, the town was left with a legend: the sound of three knocks meant the doctor was at your door, and death would follow.
Decades later, Zara Vos returns to Willowmore to care for her mother, Annelise, who drifts between dementia and uncanny clarity. Annelise insists the doctor still visits. At first, Zara dismisses it as confusion — until neighbors speak of the knock, the air fills with the scent of camphor, and illness creeps through the town once more.
Uncovering her great-grandfather's journal and artifacts, Zara learns the haunting is not only folklore but bound to her bloodline. With the help of Daniel, a local archivist, she pieces together the truth: Pieter never stopped his rounds. His ghost lingers, carrying the names of the dead, seeking release.
When the knocking comes to her own door, Zara must face the doctor's burden — and decide whether to end it or inherit it.
