Description
Consumed with grief after the loss of her mother, Esme begins to see and hear things that others can't.
Diagnosed with depression and anxiety, she hides her experiences, afraid she's losing her mind. But everything changes after a session with her psychiatrist leads her to Perkin, a Canadian expat, and his mother, Toni, a reality researcher with unorthodox ideas.
As Esme and Perkin grow closer, she starts to believe her visions might be more than just symptoms - they could be glimpses into hidden layers of reality. Together, they test the boundaries of perception and are drawn into a world as dangerous as it is beautiful, where nothing is quite what it seems.
