About this listen
Diana's living her happily ever after, or so it seems. But the past, oh, it has a way of catching up to us all. It knocks on her door, a relentless reminder of what she left behind, who she used to be, and all that she's lost. Those shadows of guilt and doubt cast a threatening cloud over the life she's painstakingly built with her husband, Jed.
You see, Diana's come a long way from the heartbreak and suffering of her childhood, the pain of rejection. She's learned the true meaning of love, and with Jed by her side, she's found her fairy tale ending. However, life has an uncanny knack for throwing curveballs, and it's a real curveball when her mother, the one person she never thought she'd see again—the same person who inflicted more pain than anyone else—comes knocking at her door.
Now, Diana must face this woman, her mother, and confront the hurt, guilt, and doubt that threatens to drive a wedge between her and her loving husband. Deep down, Diana knows this woman can't be trusted, and the tension between them is palpable. Can she find a way to reconcile the past and bring peace to the woman she's become? It's a journey of love, betrayal, and self-discovery, where the promise of a happily ever after hangs in the balance.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.
