The premise
A wheelchair-bound young girl returns to her father's estate after ten years, and although she's told he's away, she keeps seeing his dead body on the estate.
Horror Vault's take
Returning to her father's French Riviera estate after a decade away, a young woman in a wheelchair expects a reunion — but finds only evasive answers and something far more disturbing lurking in the shadows. Again and again she glimpses what appears to be her father's corpse, yet everyone around her insists nothing is wrong. Trapped by her disability and surrounded by people whose loyalties are impossible to read, she must determine whether she is losing her mind or being deliberately driven to that point. This sharp British psychological thriller delivers mounting paranoia and a labyrinthine plot that keeps its cards close until the very end.
