When his father suffers a stroke, Christopher Beal returns to England. He has no home, no other family. Adrift, he answers an advert for a live-in tutor for a teenage boy. The boy is Lawrence Lundy, who possesses the spirit of his father, a military pilot - missing, presumed dead. Unable to accept that his father is gone, Lawrence keeps his presence alive. His mother keeps the boy at home, away from the world. And in the suffocating heat of summer, she too is infected by the madness of her son. Only by forcing the boy to release the spirit of his father can there be any escape from the haunting.
