Opis

Haunted Truth is a tragic and suspenseful story that explores the fragile boundaries between the living and the dead, telling the story of Annabelle, a seemingly average girl fated for an extraordinary purpose.
The story begins with Annabelle's seemingly common life circumstances: as a teenage girl, she feels that her parents do not spend enough time with her and that her sister Elizabeth dislikes her. The two girls spend very little time together, particularly as Elizabeth is absent for long periods and comes home only to sit at their computer for hours. This commonplace existence does not last long: on Annabelle's birthday, her parents and sister are killed in a tragic accident. Annabelle is left alone in their large Victorian house with only her adult friends, the Savages, to keep her company - that is, until Elizabeth comes to visit her one night and tells her that Annabelle must carry on Elizabeth's "chosen" task of helping ghosts to reach the afterlife by resolving the conflicts that keep them on earth.
With her large inheritance and home, Annabelle attempts to accommodate Joshua, a ghost who needs to figure out why he and his family died, in order to be at rest. Developing a close friendship, Annabelle and Joshua begin to uncover shocking secrets that affect both of them; it is Annabelle's parents' firm that brought about Joshua's death, as well as their own. With time running out and the firm hot on their trail, Annabelle realizes that she is fighting a cosmic battle of good and evil. However, at Joshua's family estate, Annabelle realizes the crucial clue that allows Annabelle to send Joshua and her parents to the afterlife.
