Description
Imaginary friends. They’re harmless, right? Until your daughter’s invisible companion shares the same name as the twin sister you killed twenty years ago.
Abby Clark has built her life on guilt and carefully constructed normalcy. As a protective mother and dedicated teacher in Meadowbrook, she hides a dark secret. At age seven, she murdered her identical twin.
Grief drove Abby’s mother mad, and doctors institutionalized her soon after. Abby has carried the weight of their family’s destruction alone ever since. Then her daughter starts playing with an imaginary friend who knows impossible details about the past. The walls Abby built around her memories begin to crack.
Chalk drawings appear in her basement. They feature names from her childhood, including Tina, the mysterious girl she was told never existed.
Her ex-husband secretly brings their daughter to visit the grandmother she’s never known. A visually impaired student insists she can see Abby’s dead sister. The past and present collide in ways that defy explanation. Abby must navigate the treacherous territory between madness and truth. Every answer leads to a more disturbing question: Is she losing her mind like her mother? Or has she been living someone else’s lie all along?
