Set in Ontario just after World War I, Dee and her grandmother live in a small cabin on the outskirts of a rural town. Grandmother is the town's midwife and also the one people come to for 'medicines' when they are sick. The town does have a doctor but some people would rather trade goods with Grandmother than pay cash for medical help. Fourteen-year-old Dee has been raised by Grandmother as her own mother ran off with a travelling show when Dee was only a few months old - her father is unknown. Otherwise the only special thing about Dee is that she sees dead people. Her gift, which she keeps secret even from her grandmother, tests her endurance when her former friend's bones are found up on the mountain approximately four years after she went missing. And it isn't until a new girl is found dead that a detective from Toronto arrives to find the serial killer in their midst.
