'Aurora Jones dreams in pictures. Pictures that depict tragedy and death.

After the death of her Mother and sister, Aurora's father, Merv, moves them across the world to LA, where he forges a new career as a celebrity ghost hunter, thanks to Aurora's dreams. But Aurora sees her father changing into a character she doesn't recognize - his alter ego - Clive Soul.

Unable to keep the father she knows beside her, she tells him her dreams have stopped, causing him to resort to dramatisation to keep his career alive. But his actions are drawing evil closer as he continues to delve into the spiritual realm. Protected by the spirit of her Mother and sister, Aurora is the only one who can prevent them from being enveloped by the darkness...' (Lulu.com website)
