If the dead can wake and walk among us how can we know what is truly real?Roos Beckman has a
spirit companion only she can see. Ruth-strange corpse-like and dead for centuries-is the
light of Roos' life. That is until the wealthy young widow Agnes Knoop visits one of Roos'
backroom seances and the two strike up a connection. Soon Roos is whisked away to the
crumbling estate Agnes inherited upon the death of her husband where an ill woman haunts the
halls strange smells drift through the air at night and mysterious stone statues reside in
the family chapel. Something dreadful festers in the manor but still the attraction between
Roos and Agnes is undeniable. Then someone is murdered. Poor alone and with a history of
'hysterics' Roos is the obvious culprit. With her sanity and innocence in question she'll
have to prove who-or what-is at fault or lose everything she holds dear.
