Description
On a balmy June night, Kirsten's tranquil mood is shattered as she is viciously attacked. When she awakens in hospital, she has no recollection of that brutal night, but details slowly reveal themselves - dreams of two figures, one white and one black, hovering over her; wisps of a strange and haunting song; the unfamiliar texture of a rough and deadly hand.
Meanwhile, Martha Browne arrives in Whitby, posing as an author doing research for a book. Her research is of a particularly macabre variety, driven by a deadly determination that raises questions about her true intentions.
This gripping psychological thriller weaves together two seemingly unrelated narratives to create a complex and suspenseful tale of violence, mystery, and the darker aspects of human nature.
