A room of secrets in a house of lies....

When Josh explores his grandmother's house he finds an attic up a closed-off staircase. In it is a collection of strange drawings by his uncle, Patrick, who died suddenly in his teens. But he has no grave, and his name is never spoken.

And Josh begins to uncover the dark truth his family has hidden for forty years.....
