After a devastating accident, Edgar Freemantle retreats to the remote Duma Key. There, the island's sun-drenched shores and whispering shells reawaken his dormant artistic gifts. But as Edgar's unsettling paintings take on a life of their own, they summon the ghosts of Duma's past. Forging an unlikely bond with his neighbor Wireman, Edgar must confront the island's sinister secrets - and the dangerous recesses of his own psyche - to harness his newfound powers. In this tale of creativity, redemption, and the supernatural, the most ordinary places conceal the darkest forces.
