The McPherson family had been involved with helping American slaves through the Underground Railroad into Canada in the mid 1860s. The mansion has more secrets than Alex could have ever imagined. Alex doesn't believe in the afterlife and ghosts until he meets Daisy Day, a twelve-year-old American slave girl. Is Alex suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder? Are his visions of Daisy Day real? Add a murder and kidnapping at the McPherson mansion and Alex's quiet, well-paid job turns into a fight for his life.
