In 1939, young journalist Will Drachman is murdered during a visit to Dr. Norman Baker's alleged Cancer Curing Hospital. To move on, Will needs his body properly buried. But there's one problem - he has no idea where it is.

Fast forward seventy-eight years, sixteen-year-old Zacari Jones is on a grudging getaway to salvage her relationship with her father at the hospital-turned-hotel named The Crescent. She discovers an old-fashioned camera beneath the floorboards of her room, also known as Baker's old office, and it proves to be more than a dusty artifact when she peers through and finds she is able to communicate with the ghost of Dr. Baker. 

As Dr. Baker sheds light on his legacy, Will has something to say on the matter. Faced with ghostly contradictions, Zacari must determine who is telling the truth, all the while juggling a neglectful father, a possible romance, and chihuahua sidekick prone to fits of uncontrollable urinating.All Rights Reserved
