Opis

Newly divorced and ready to relaunch herself, Sydney Powell and her retired K9 move back to the city in which she grew up to write a book about the infamous underworld faction known as The Purple Gang. Having once lived in a house built and used by the Purple Gang to run liquor, Sydney takes the opportunity to rent the place, believing it will help her write the book.Met with opposition from her psychotic mother and her long brooding brother, Jack, who believe the real story of the house is about ghosts, she begins to dig into the history. Her research yields very little about her intended subject, instead pointing to an entirely different history tied to the brutal death of young boy.Peeling back the layers of time, Sydney and Jack become acutely aware that the house hides secrets linked to, not only the gruesome murder that rocked the city, but deeper, more disturbing events. The secrets, held hostage in the walls.
