Thessaly alienates her husband Karl, an American air force officer
stationed in England, as she defends her mother, a bitter
war-widow. Mum attempts to dominate Karl as she does Thessaly. The
stress between the trio builds when Mum follows her daughter and
Karl to the United States and Gloucester, Massachusetts.
As Karl and Thessaly's children grown up, Thessaly suffers
seizures while being haunted by images of Shadowbrooks, the country
house where she and her mother fled to during the stepped up
bombing in World War II.
Plagued by sleepless nights, Thessaly wonders if the years she
can't remember could be connected to this haunting Shadowbrooks
house.
Mum comes to stay with them for a month each August which
disrupts Thessaly, Karl and their children as Mum distorts and
denies the life she and Thessaly had led at Shadowbrooks. Thessaly
profoundly dreads her mother coming as she still attempts to
dominate them. When Mum suddenly dies, Thessaly's seizures
accelerate, but her medical tests are negative.
Convinced her illness is to do with Shadowbrooks. Thessaly sees
a Boston psychiatrist who brilliantly unravels her Shadobrooks
hauntings. After a trip back to Shadowbrooks, England, Thessaly not
only discovers the disturbing story behind her mother and herself,
but also the cover-up that had sent both into decades of denial
