When eighteen-year-old Josephine flees her abusive mother and the third-floor bedroom she was locked in, she hopes to start a fresh, simple life with her boyfriend Ben and their unborn child in a quiet northern town. But some wounds don't stay buried for long.

 

Though hopeful, Jo continues to see shadows no one else can see-hear whispers only she remembers from her childhood: the stories her beloved grandmother once whispered to her in the dark about the Fae.

 

After a devastating loss, Jo spirals. Reality bends. The shadows whisper. And the line between grief and madness begins to blur. As her mind fractures under the weight of old stories and new trauma, Jo clings to her grandmother's folklore like a lifeline-until she can no longer remember where the stories end and where she begins.
