Thirty years later, actress Sadie Langton is hired to play a party guest for an unusual game at Raven Hall. When the game takes a dark turn, Sadie decides to uncover the truth about her host.

Os professores viram em mim um potencial nas letras, e desenvolveram-no, havia muita pressão, aos 11 anos eu já lia Jane Eyre.
