Moira, an alcoholic bestselling author buys a rundown Victorian house. She’s at her lowest ebb having lost custody of her twin children and suffering from writers’ block. She encounters an eery presence, a long-dead Edwardian lady, Lydia. As the words pour out of her, Moira is convinced she is being guided by Lydia to tell the awful truth about her life and loves. Moira strives to discover the truth about her ghostly collaborator battling her own demons at the same time.
On the surface, Kayleigh Marron has a perfect life. Great job. Rich City banker boyfriend. Lovely house in the suburbs. Singing on stage with her musician friend Jay at weekends.
But underneath, dark currents are stirring. Why is she seeing flashbacks of the past? Why is she dreaming about rows of little bony feet? And what does any of this have to do with the new priest at her mother’s church?
En apparence, Kayleigh Marron mène la vie idéale. Un boulot génial, un riche banquier de la City en guise de petit ami et une ravissante maison de banlieue chic. Le week-end, elle se produit sur scène avec son ami musicien Jay.
Mais derrière cette apparente perfection, de sombres courants s'agitent. Pourquoi voit-elle des flashbacks du passé? Pourquoi rêve-t-elle de rangées de petits pieds décharnés? Et qu’est-ce que le nouveau prêtre de l’église de sa mère a à voir avec tout ça ?
