Every night she plays...and every night they come...

Lira is a violinist by nature and a performer by imprisonment. Stolen as a child by a malevolent wraith and trapped in the Spirit World, Lira now spends her days playing the very music that seduced her in the first place. She sees no escape from her existence under the sorceress Bebinn, until one day her music lures Owen who, at age 16, is supposed to be too old to succumb to its spell.  Imprisoned alongside Lira and desperate to find a way back home, Owen vows to find a way to free them both. 

The only problem: no one has ever escaped Bebinn and the Spirit World alive.
