Description
I stepped out from the deep shadows in the wings and on to the stage. The others turned to look at me. Was it excitement or a renewed bout of nerves making me dizzy? I tried to speak, but the words stuck in my throat. Zoe really comes alive when she’s acting, so she’s thrilled when she lands a leading role at the local theatre. But when rehearsals begin, strange things start to happen. She has disturbing blackouts and terrible dreams. Only Jack, the quiet, charismatic stagehand, seems to understand what she’s going through. And when Zoe sees a ghostly figure in the props room mirror, Jack helps her to uncover a spine-chilling story from the past . . .
