Plot
"Sweet sister. I'm so glad you came. I'm sorry I wasn't here to meet you, but you must understand, this situation with Brandon is serious..." Luisa is worried about her son Brandon as he looks ill and older. She asks Anna to help her talk to him, since Brandon is so fond of his aunt. Anna gets into Brandon's room to find him being dragged into the swamp. Anna tries to find Luisa but she leaves a note saying she has gone to meet a woman who says she can help Brandon. Anna finds Brandon's living puppet in his room. He explains that Brandon was deceived by the swamp demon (disguised as an old woman), who tricked Brandon into making wishes without realizing the consequences: he would age quickly and the demon would take his body.

Anna goes to the swamp demon's house and finds out that Luisa is trapped in a snow globe. The demon tries to stop Anna but she lights the fire, chasing him away. Brandon's soul appears. He's also trapped in the house and asks Anna to change his fate. After finding Brandon's drawing and a magical quill, Anna enters Brandon's memory of the day he made his first wish. Luisa was bitten by a poisonous snake. Brandon called for help but the ambulance never arrived, so Brandon wished for his mother to be saved. In the memory, Anna learns that the swamp demon is behind all of this. She manages to find the antidote for Luisa, thus preventing Brandon from needing to make this wish.

After saving Brandon, the puppet suggests Brandon needs protection from the swamp demon. Anna puts him in his room with lavender and three protective totems around him. As she sets out to save Brandon and his parents, Anna learns that John Gray, who went to Siberia for an expedition, is missing in the mountains of Siberia and has never been found. With the puppet's help, Anna finds Brandon's drawing in the tree house and enters the memory. John was attacked by a bear and fell off a cliff. Anna manages to save John, who is now back home and helps her free Luisa. They all rush to Brandon, but Luisa accidentally knocks one of the totems from its position, removing the protective charm. The demon tries to possess Brandon. Anna decides to go back to the day Brandon signed a deal with the demon. While in the memory, she traps the demon in a crystal ball and destroys it. Brandon is free and the family is reunited.

Bonus Chapter
The swamp demon won't let Brandon be. As his last attempt, he traps Brandon and his parents in the swamp, making them his prisoners forever. Anna gets into their house and finds Luisa and John captured by strange evil flowers and Brandon locked in his own room. Crossing the swamp, Anna discovers special butterflies that can kill the flowers. After she saves Luisa and John, Anna gets into Brandon's room and tries to help Brandon, but the swamp demon won't give up easily. With the help of Brandon's puppet and John, Anna uses a totem and saves Brandon from the demon.
