Description
Thea, a 16-year old sufering from traumatic amnesia, struggles to discover who she is--and who she is not. As she tries to recover her idenity, the empty places of her mind fill up with memories--but whose memories are they? Thea hears voices no one can hear, sees people in the garden on one can see. Is she living someone else's terrible dream? Thea finds her self caught between tow worlds. In one, her unhappy family seems to be falling apart. In the other, shadowy spirits haunt her with their tragic passion. In both there is anger and loneliness, but in the spirits' world there is also murder.
