Description

Following a harrowing plane crash that claims the lives of most of his passengers, an airline pilot and his family seek refuge in a remote Victorian home, only to discover a chilling connection between the number of bolts sealing a basement door and the tragedy he survived. As unsettling events unfold, the pilot's wife grows suspicious of the local women's interest in their twin daughters and questions her husband's fragile grip on reality. This gripping tale masterfully blends psychological suspense with supernatural elements, exploring themes of grief, guilt, and the lingering presence of the past. Bohjalian delivers a poignant and powerful ghost story, rich with atmosphere and unforgettable characters, some of whom are no longer among the living.
