Newly wed and newly arrived in Mobile, Alvin and Deborah Farley attempt to settle into the Washington Square neighborhood in September 1910, but all is not peaceful in the idyllic, tree-lined streets.
Suffering under widowed Aunt Catherine's jealousy and control of the household, Deborah is also struggling with an increase of ghostly apparitions and messages from beyond. While Alvin is busy with his teaching position at Barton Academy, Deborah seeks to establish her place in their new home and bring peace to neighbor Sean Spunner, who is tormented by the weight of his dead fiancee's haunting.
Will Deborah be able to further develop her powers as a medium to master her weaknesses and banish Sean's oppressor, all while the truth of Catherine's husband's death comes to light?
