Sally Jane Riley is not your typical mild-mannered librarian. Living and working in her hometown of Waxhaw, NC, she challenges the symptoms of her schizoaffective disorder every day in her best attempt at living a normal life. Soon after moving into her new home, she begins to experience dreams and visions of a mysterious turn-of-the-century woman. Sally is caught between a tentative belief in the paranormal and the ongoing symptoms of her mental illness. As the dreams become more intense, they hint of dark happenings that could only lead to the conclusion of foul play. For Sally, the question is a double-edged sword: Do her dreams hold the secret to solving a century-old murder, or is she descending further into the madness of her disease?
