Turn the page, strike a chord.

There are restless ghosts to be appeased...

When Japanese-American teenager, Adam, discovers a diary in his attic, he is enthralled by its account of a young Japanese woman’s life. A hundred years separate them yet she, like Adam, is caught between cultures, relationships and heartbreak.

And the ghosts gather...
