Megan Miller doesn't believe in ghosts or in reincarnation but that soon changes after moving to a new city and a new school. It starts with feelings of déjà vu. Vague feelings at first that remain annoyingly just out of reach. Then the flashbacks start - memories of ancient times and fragmented dreams of when she had been called Celeste. Then comes the haunting. After visiting the old bombed out cathedral, Megan believes some dark ominous presence is haunting her, following her, whispering in her ear. And always the same question, where did you hide it?

A vicious burglary goes horribly wrong - the elderly victim is killed and one of the burglars is injured. In the detached house next door, Julia is preparing to leave her husband. He has let her down for the last time and her bags are packed. Taking their eight-year-old daughter, Lucy, from her bed they set off in the fog. But on this cold, dark night, fate steps in and these strangers collide. When Vincent and Nash abduct the mother and daughter, and take them to a derelict house, the situation takes an even graver turn.

Paul finally has his life back on track. After losing his wife, Helena, in a horrific car crash, he has found love with Sally and moves into her country cottage near his old childhood home. As a former high-ranking Naval Officer, Paul now works as Head of Security at MI5. He has no memories from before he was ten years old. An accident left him in a coma for 9 months. But was it really an accident? Soon Paul starts to have flashes of childhood memories, all involving his childhood friend, Owen, and a terrifying witch-like woman who lived in the woods whom he and Owen used to taunt.
